Ready enough

Actual worries vs. everything else / Issue 1,472

Oh, hi friends!

What are you actually worried about?

Getting to the truth requires going a few levels deeper than normal.

Like, you’re probably not actually worried about completing the application by the due date.

It’s more likely you’re worried about the fact that…

You don’t feel “ready” enough.

Your effort will expose you as an imposter. 

If this doesn’t work, you’ll run out of options. 

You’re sacrificing something else that’s important.

(Should I stop?!) 

But these are valuable truths to know.

Ask: What are you actually worried about?

Answer it honestly.

You’ll clear up a lot of gunk in your mind.

And actually, probably, maybe, get you closer to a solution.

Find me the pool chlorinated with real worries / not the fake stuff / then I’ll know the sting means something / (image)
