#511: 

FUD = Fear. Uncertainty. Doubt.

The triad that keeps us from betting on ourselves.

And keeps us on the incremental path to nowhere.

I used to be a FUD.

I grew up in a very fiscally conservative household.

My parents are well off, but massive penny pinchers.

This isn’t bad, in fact it’s noble.

However, saying no to even the slightest risk of losing isn’t great for personal growth.

So naturally I was extremely risk averse for the first 20 years of my life.

Until I learned about the BARBELL strategy.

Here it is, and how it can help you take more bold action (that seems risky) to go after what you want in life.
