15. We are working with yesterday’s
parts to solve today’s problems.
Yesterday’s parts are overkill for
today’s problems.
Even, or especially, when we
have real challenges we are
facing, anxiety is not the way.

21. Whether we are dealing with a bad
hair day, a conflict with our boss,
or an oncoming car, the survival
brain works the same way.
We are instantly mobilized to Fight
or Flee
And that’s where our problems
begin. And our solutions…
26. We want change without risk.
Risk without pain.
Change without uncertainty.
Certainty without investigation.
We want a guarantee.

28. Meet your fear and doubt at the door.
Don’t walk away.
The first things that fly out may be scary.
This is a universal phenomenon– not a
reliable measure of the risk or danger in Your
particular situation.
Make a choice to hang in and look past those
first reactions to see what is really there.
29. But, you can change
your reaction to
your thoughts.
47. Deer in the headlights, stuck
in the moment, can’t move till
figure it out.
Have
a goal but can’t quite
move.
Editor's Notes
Worry wheel
I feel a little bad showing you this stuff before we’ve worked on strategies! But just start by naming the feared object… it makes it feel less scary, or picture wally slipping on a banana peel, wearing a tutu or wearing curlers??
Or, we could just imagine how a superhero would think about it….or not.
