New things bring emotions. Usually a mixture of fear and excitement, doubt, and confusion.

However, as a coach, and as a mother, and as a person, I've never seen anyone not try something new (that was safe and desirable) as long as they had support and confidence. Support is from an external source (coach, friend, partner, boss). Confidence is internal and built from previous successes.

You can see in the case of John James, he worked it through on his own, but also used me at times. Or at any rate, he knew he was not alone in his struggles. He argued with me just as he did with himself.

Exercise

To learn to handle your doubt, calm yourself, take some time, and get into your thinking brain (neocortex) and analyze. Good EQ is good reality-testing. If it's something dangerous, stupid or illogical, don't do it.

If it will get you where you want to go, go for it. How do you do this?

1. Hire a coach.

2. Find examples that directly contradict your fears.

3. Wait till your emotions calm down. Practice self-soothing exercises to speed up the process, i.e., play piano, warm bath, exercise, meditation, yoga.

4. Manage around your doubt.

5. Don't judge yourself about your emotions, just deal with them. No need to be "perfect," just progressing.

6. Consider fear as "excitement turned inside out."

When you manage doubt, you're able to try new things, which brings success and builds self-esteem and confidence. You retain your zest and enthusiasm for life because new things are more exciting than the status quo.

Most importantly, you gain certainty. You FEEL a whole lot better about life, yourself and others. If you think back on a time of doubt and indecision, you'll recall it's one of the most unpleasant positions to be in.

Work on your Emotional Intelligence. It pays off.

P.S. Process afterwards and celebrate. On the way home from the park, John James and I talked about how he felt to have succeeded in climbing the frame - proud and happy.

This is important to your sense of personal power. The emotions of fear and doubt at the time are strong, and you don't want to "rehearse" that and relive it. You want to reinforce that you succeeded and how good it felt. This builds resilience, an EQ competency.

Now when John James faces an unrealistic doubt, we can say, "Remember how you first felt about the climbing frame at the park?"

conceiving of his own perfection and incapable of achieving it.
