What do you do when your mind is racing like crazy and your stomach sinks to your knees moments before taking a risk and getting a rejection?
It can be any area. Business, relationships, friendships. You have a big client meeting that could 10x your start-up tomorrow with the C-level suite, you are pitching your highest priced plan to a big F1000, you are asking out the gorgeous girl at the bar/gym/etc.
I think that for me I tell myself all the reasons it won't work such and how much people will laugh at me. I don't have enough capital, status, knowledge of the industry, know-how, and so on. It seems paralyzing. I literally tell myself right before the event, 'don't F*ck this up'.
Have any of you successfully broken through the pattern of self-sabotaging yourself before you begin?
How?
