Transforming Fear into Greatness
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us." -- Marianne Williamson
Fear can prevent us from achieving great success by distorting reality or allowing us to become grounded in false beliefs. FEAR is False Evidence Appearing Real. Stepping up and identifying factors that prevent us from achieving success allows us to recognize why we are staying in our comfort zone. This is critical in achieving confidence. Confidence does not require fearlessness. Instead, confidence is the ability to step into unchartered territory and get comfortable with the uncomfortable. Through this process, we learn to navigate uncertainty and know that we have what it takes to grow. This is the reason why Virtual Patent Gateway (VPG) approached Dr. Yusim. In this workshop, she will provide practical guidance to help people identify their obstacles in order to transform their fear, all based on the exercises and proven practices from her book, Fulfilled: How the Science of Spirituality Can Help You Live a Happier, More Meaningful Life.
