How, why and the other thing
Almost all the inputs, advice and resources available are about how. How to write better copy, how to code, how to manage, how to get people to do what you want, how to lose weight, how to get ahead...
Far more scarce is help in understanding why. Why bother? Why move forward? Why care?
And rarest of all, yet ironically the most important, is help and insight about getting to the core of the fear that is holding us back.
This is the cause of the unfinished novel, of the self-sabotaging aggressive marketing campaign and the speech that goes on too long. It's the at the heart of too much, too little, and too boring as well.
You might need confidence in your 'how' to deal with your fear. You might have found your 'why' overwhelmed by your fear. But all the how and all the why isn't going to help much if we can't acknowledge that essential driver is, "where is the fear?"
Are we so afraid of it that we can't even discuss it?
