Lesson 19: Use Your Fear and Self-doubt

In the early years, fear and self-doubt nearly stopped me in my tracks.

After some genuinely tough experiences, I realised those two emotions would always be part of who I am.

So instead of fighting them, I used them.

Because I doubt myself, I keep learning.

Because I worry, I prepare properly.

Because of that, clients often say they feel surprised by how much thought has gone into the work.

What could have held me back improved my work. It was a lesson well learned.
