WHAT IS BRAVERY – webinar notes:

Value of courage

Acting in a way that increases fear sensations

Fear is basically any form of discomfort – Uncertainty – Distraction – Nervousness – Terror – Confusion – Busyness

Courage is not strength but wisdom

You’re in a negotiation with fear, which uses underhanded sales techniques

Delay is the most common technique – Don’t know enough yet – Inappropriate – Dangerous – Need permission – Can’t be sure of your motives – It’s not fear, it’s some other reasonable reason

Always be a beginner – Make sure you do something for the first time every week – Move up to the next levels as soon as you’re 80% ready – Try it before researching how to
