Wanted to report a recurring issue that I've been having. I have a fear of making mistakes, and doing poorly in front of people. This isn't uncommon and I'm sure many here either share or have shared this fear. Do I learn things "faster"? Yes, yes I do. The problem is that the fear of making a mistake...is causing me to make mistakes. In the past I attributed my mistakes to me not being intelligent (past experiences no doubt,) however I've discovered that it really has to do with anxiety. When I'm alone my mind works like a supercomputer, coming up with all sorts of solutions and ideas but once I get nervous...it's gone. Very frustrating, especially when you consider I'm trying to get a new job that will require me to be very on point mentally.
In other words, once I'm done with this combo I'll most likely move onto Overcoming Fear and I might use it with my ASC custom sub I got from Shannon. Until then, I've come up with some strategies to help me with the nerves, most of them are actually relaxation techniques used by athletes.
EDIT: Also, for anyone trying this combo keep in mind that you will need a proper night's sleep for this combo to work. You can slack off on sleeping for a few days but eventually the effects will be downgraded without proper sleep.
