This is a great question!
My strategy is that when I have a goal to achieve, and I find myself considering why the goal can't be met, I recognize that I'm being overly reasonable about what is possible and that I've limited myself by doing that. Sometimes, to achieve something, I have to be utterly unreasonable about getting it done and not let my usual considerations get in my way. Sure, be logical. But don't be reasonable. If you think you can or you think you can't - you're probably right!

Our fears keep us from achieving our full potential. Imagine someone being afraid of facing an audience despite being an expert in his/her field of study. If they never face that fear, they will never be able to achieve the growth they deserve. Their potential will be lost unless they face their vulnerability and take a step to overcome the fear.

This applies to all of us and for every fear that is keep us bound.

I was coached that the fear and uncertainty you feel, it is how you know you are growing. It is proof that you are pushing your limits. When you don't feel that underlying rush, you are bored and stuck.

I think that avoiding discomfort even when it is obviously in existence is unhelpful. When we accept the discomfort, we work towards changing the situation rather than avoiding this. This aids growth.
