Assess your strengths and weaknesses
A lot of fear surrounding goal pursuit can stem from the idea that you don’t yet have the skillset to go after your dreams. Rather than hiding from that, Francois-Madden suggests confronting it and doing something about it. You always have the power to just get better at something – remember that. Anyone who is skilled wasn’t born that way. They worked at it. Francois-Madden suggests those who are feeling inadequate, “Do a series of strengths-based assessment tests to see what they are good at.” From there, you can work to become stronger in areas you may be weak. That’s one way of gaining some control over your fears.
