THE 2 BIGGEST PSYCHOLOGICAL OBSTACLES LEADERS FACE

We humans want to feel loved and safe more than anything.

The fear of being rejected and fear of the unknown are the two biggest psychological obstacles to success.

The fear of being rejected is terrifying. As a baby, if we are abandoned… we die. When we feel like we are not good enough, or maybe even an imposter, or not making others happy, or worried that people will leave us if we fail - we hide, shrink, or engage in all kinds of funky coping skills to avoid being seen.

We humans crave safety. We feel safe when we know what to expect. Perfectionism, procrastination, analysis paralysis, and self-sabotage are all psychological tactics to avoid the excruciating uncertainty & overwhelming responsibility involved in being a leader.

When you just want to run & hide or shut it all down…

Everytime you feel like you are just not good enough…

Remember that you are HUMAN.

Successful leaders learn to navigate their own psychology like their life depends on it.

Entrepreneurs know that obstacles are really opportunities. Being SEEN in spite of the psychological obstacles, is the most important factor for success. The world needs you to show up & share your gifts.
