Hello Robert. My biggest fear is being trapped in an article mill, with no way out.

Hey Bob,

This rings true. I’ve absolutely been dragging ass on some big ideas. Thanks for the inspiration. The universe gives you what you need when you need it. Take care.

Hey Robert -
Great post, as usual. So, we’re all at different points in our careers, but I definitely felt my chest tightening around at least a couple the bullet points you mentioned. God, at least for me, I’ve always been driven, as it were, by a feeling like “I ain’t good enough” … and then, low and behold, I seem to get passed on to the next level, if you will.

Keep up your good work here, Robert.

Hi Rob, great post!

The interesting thing is that we’re often only fearful until of something until we’ve done it. After doing that thing a couple of times (whether it’s writing, pitching, speaking, making a video of ourselves…) it becomes normal, and then it becomes second nature. So we move on to the next thing that scares us until it becomes second nature…

We change. We grow. We succeed.

Glad you enjoyed it… “Money is where the fear is”.. is the best advice I have ever been given.

My biggest fear is not being able to come up with an appropriate ending for something I write. I don’t have a problem with anything else, not even rejection – if they don’t like it, they don’t like it. Tough!
