Don’t let this kill your dream
There is one thing that keeps entrepreneurs playing small and I would like to write about it because I feel that it’s something many are not consciously aware of; yet it keeps holding you back in business. If you keep letting this stop you, you will not get to where you want to go.
I’m talking about the terror barrier. Have you heard that term before? I believe Bob Proctor first introduced this term. The terror barrier is the feeling of terror that appears and stops you when you are ready to take a big leap. Let me make an example to illustrate:
Let’s say you’re getting ready to up-level your business. You’re ready to sign on with a new coach, do a live event, or make a large investment or take a step forward in your business that you know could propel you to the next level. You want to do it. You are excited about it. You know deep down it’s the right next step for you. But taking that step feels like the scariest thing you’ve ever done. In fact, you are terrified.
You know your future depends on this decision. And just as you’re getting ready to take the leap and commit, something happens to derail your attention. Maybe you suddenly get hit with a large and unexpected expense; you get sick or have an accident. Then, you get nervous; you start sweating and your heart starts beating faster.
Your mind starts to spin. You come up with all the reasons why you can’t commit right now and tell yourself this is probably a sign that you should not proceed. Your mind starts creating what seems like a lot of very valid reasons for why you should back out. And you do.
Has this ever happened to you? Know that it is human and there is nothing wrong with you. The issue is that your subconscious mind does not want you to change. Every action you take that will move you out of your current situation and force you to change is going to bring up some kind of fear. And the bigger the commitment, the bigger the terror becomes.
Every time you step out of your comfort zone, your subconscious mind will try to stop you. Click To TweetIf you are not aware of how the terror barrier works and how it’s designed to keep you staying small, you may fall prey to it. But the more you are aware of what’s truly going on, the easier it will be for you to recognize what’s going on and put a strategy in place for it not to stop you.
The terror barrier IS designed to stop you. Your subconscious mind does not like change. But if you want to change, you cannot let it stop you. While the terror barrier won’t actually kill you (although you may feel uncomfortable yes), it may eventually kill your dreams.
I see this happen with people all the time. And it breaks my heart. I’ve been there too and I know it’s terrifying, but I also know that if you let it stop you, you’re back to where you started.
So what do you do then? The simple answer is keep moving forward despite your terror. Just keep moving. Don’t let it stop you.
Now that you know what the terror barrier is designed to do, you can just see it for what it is. You can tell yourself that you’re not going to fall prey this time. And remember that the bigger the terror, the bigger the reward will be on the other side and the closer you will be to your goals.
What will you do next time the terror barrier creeps upon you? Are you going to let it stop you or are you going to keep moving forward into the unknown? The answer to that question will determine your destiny.
