If you’re stuck in a creative rut in life or business, I bet I know what the problem is.

You might be procrastinating for England (or insert your current location here), feeling overwhelmed, stagnating.

Inaction breeds inaction.

Do those dishes suddenly need washing?

I know EXACTLY what you’re suffering from.

FEAR.

I think you’re afraid of the really big thing that you’re putting your heart and soul into actually happening. You know, because it’s so big, it means you need to procrastinate over it?

You’re diverting all your attention and energies into things that don’t really need it aren’t you?

Are you scared of this big thing not working and you falling flat on your face? See how these things we tell ourselves assume massive proportions?

This sort of fear isn’t real, we just try to make it so. It isn’t the healthy kind of fear that we need to keep us safe from stepping out into the road in front of a car. This is the False Evidence Appearing Real kind, the bit we make up in our heads and keeps us in one place.

So, you’re stuck in a rut. Your fear is keeping you in it. What can you do to combat the false evidence appearing real?
