Play Offense Against Anxiety: Transform Fear into Growth

Let’s talk about anxiety, because entrepreneurs face anxiety-inducing situations on a regular basis. And sharpening your skills for outmaneuvering anxiety will serve you well.

You can’t use willpower to fight anxiety. That’s like trying to put out a fire by pouring gasoline on it. Anxiety resists our efforts to suppress it. It may sound odd, but one of the best ways to handle anxiety is to think bigger.

It’s a way to shift the playing field in your favor, activating a mentality shift that gives you the upper hand. It’s about shifting from a defensive stance against what you fear to an offensive strategy focused on what you desire.

This isn’t about ignoring the risks you face, but empowering yourself to face them with a confident smile and an ace up your sleeve.
