This week’s question from our portal “Ask Us Anything” comes from Clint.
I’ve discovered that I have the “I don’t know” block. Whenever I don’t know how to do something, I stop. This is the terror barrier that stops me from moving forward every time.
Underneath this, I realized there’s a fear of being seen. That fear is driving the “I don’t know” pattern that keeps showing up in my life. Is there something I can do to move through this? What would you suggest?
Great question!
The fear of being seen is an authority problem.
Whenever you’re concerned about how somebody else sees you, you’re giving that person “authority” in your mind to override the decisions you make. Your decisions then become based on what that person is going to think of your actions.
You have to take back your authority.
This is your life. Own it. Give authority back to yourself, and stop caring what anybody else thinks about what you’re doing.
You have to become the authority of your own life.
This takes practice. You can consciously do this, but it takes time to change the habit pattern that’s controlling your behavior underneath.
If you do this consistently, you’ll take back that authority—and then you’ll have to work through whatever happens emotionally in you, if people reject what you’re doing.
If you’re afraid of what other people think of you, you’re projecting your fears onto them. However, the voices in your head are real.
If you’re hearing a voice that says you can’t do something—that’s the voice you grew up with. Everybody has those internal, negative voices. You just have to stop listening to them.

P.S. So many business owners let the voices in their head stop them from moving forward. If you want to override this, you must start immersing yourself in success principles, so that you’re continually moving forward in life and business. To learn how to do this, join me for my Art of Success Summit, happening June 26-28th. For three days, we’ll go deep into the universal laws and how you can apply them to create the success you desire.
