#NoFreeForTheNewYear, Day: I am still trying to catch up.
#NoFreeForTheNewYear, Day: I am still trying to catch up.
  Day 25: Tell That Doubting Voice To Keep Quiet
This is something I did earlier today when I applied to become a writer for a new satirical website. That Ol’ Fear started rearing its ugly head, telling me things that I now know to be lies. Saying that what I was submitting wasn’t good, wasn’t funny, wasn’t clever. But I know it was and I know that I am talented. I had to tell that voice to keep…

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day: Let’s face it, it doesn’t matter what day it is, I just need to catch up.
Hi, I haven’t done anything with this for like a week so I’m just going to try and catch up. I’m going to do as many days as I can with this one post. Ready? Good, cause I’m not.
Day 18: Find the worst and best case scenarios
Worst Case Scenario: If I don’t overcome my fear of not being good enough then the worst case scenario would be, well, boring. It wouldn’t be terrible, I would be unhappy,…

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 16: Get Advice from a Friend & Day 17: What Are You Lacking That Fills This Fear?
#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 16: Get Advice from a Friend & Day 17: What Are You Lacking That Fills This Fear?
Hiya, sorry about the wait. I’ve been super busy with the holiday season. It took me a while to find the time to talk to a friend to get advice so I am about five days behind. I’m going to double-up until I catch up.
Day 16:
The advice my friend gave me was put eloquently and with the grace that only a friend can muster. I hope I can remember it word from word because the wordsmith of my friend…

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 15: Accept That You Have This Fear
#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 15: Accept That You Have This Fear
I’ve already done this. I accepted that I fear that I’m not good enough and began to work at it. And work at it I did. I considered saving this for the next update but since I don’t know what to write here I’m going to share something that I think is worth sharing.
Yesterday morning I browsing around the internet, not really looking for anything when I decided to look for some opportunities, just…

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 13: Meditate on Your Fear & Day 14: Update on Your Plan
#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 13: Meditate on Your Fear & Day 14: Update on Your Plan
Today is a two-for-one kind of day. Because you deserve it! (not because I was too busy to post and figured it would be easier to combine them) I suspected both Day 13 and Day 14 were going to be short so hopefully this turns out well.
Day 13: Meditate on Your Fear
I’ve done this a few times, I think meditation is important for me. I recommend it but I’m not going to force you to do it. I usually…

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 11: Understand Your Fear.
#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 11: Understand Your Fear.
In the spirit of openness that this challenge creates, I must confess I nearly skipped today. Honestly, what kind of a task is this? “Understand Your Fear”? That’s what the whole challenge is about! What fool came up with this?
Oh, that’s right. I did.
I guess I thought I wouldn’t understand my fear by this point but boy, was I wrong. I understand my fear well and truly now. I understand that my…

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 10: Imagine How Your Life Would Be Without This Fear.
#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 10: Imagine How Your Life Would Be Without This Fear.
If I didn’t have a tiny voice in my head telling me that I wasn’t good enough, where would I be? What would my life be like?
It’s weird, I almost can’t imagine it. I’m having such a hard time trying to find a version of myself that is completely fearless. Would I apply to everything opportunity I saw? Would I make and share more content? Would I already have a demo reel out and ready to send? Who…

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 9: Change Your Thoughts Into Positive Ones
#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 9: Change Your Thoughts Into Positive Ones
Changing your negative thoughts to something more positive is nothing new. And I remember there was a time when I would have rolled my eyes and baulked at this idea. I can’t exactly remember how I came to try this the first time, probably with just a shrug and an “I have nothing to lose” attitude, but it actually helped me. If nothing else, it helped me stop feeling so sorry for myself.
I wanted…

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 8: Talk To Your Fear Like It's A Person (Get Creative)
#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 8: Talk To Your Fear Like It’s A Person (Get Creative)
Today is about finding a creative way to explore your fear. I’ve decided to write a short script between me and my fear and share it below. You can explore your fear however it feels best for you, this was just my idea.
This script took me a bit to write but I’m very glad that I did. I haven’t felt this motivated and strong in such a long time. I highly recommend this exercise.

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 7: Create A Plan for Your Fear.
#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 7: Create A Plan for Your Fear.
It is currently 12:28 am as I begin to write this, but it’s technically still Day 7 because I haven’t been to bed yet. I’d like to point out that this is the only day I’ve actually thought about before sitting down to write, the rest have been off-the-cuff. Day 7 is all about planning, though, so I figured a little bit of forethought was necessary.
What I (or we, if you are doing this as well)…

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 6: Why Do You Think You Have This Fear?
#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 6: Why Do You Think You Have This Fear?
Hello, loves. Today’s post is much later than usual because I was working with TV4 for most of the day, I only got back about twenty minutes ago. It’s odd, after working with TV4 and my co-workers, I’m never left feeling no good enough. I always leave feeling invincible.
I almost want to skip today, I worry that I’ll lose this unstoppable feeling if I start to dig deep. So before I start to talk…

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 4: How Does This Fear Affect Your Life?
#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 4: How Does This Fear Affect Your Life?
I created this “Challenge” yet I’m reading this question and thinking, “What kind of question is this? This fear affects my life loads!”. But I’m remembering that the point of this question was to get specific. So I think instead of writing, I’m just going to make a list.
The fear of not being good enough stops me from:
Applying to jobs
Creating content
Sharing my ideas
Very basic ways this fear…

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 3: How Did You Discover This Fear?
#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 3: How Did You Discover This Fear?
It’s later in the day than when I normally write this. In all honesty it would have only been an hour “late” instead of three if I had got out of bed sooner. Talking about this fear, even though I have no evidence to say that a single soul has read the past two days, has left me feeling more vulnerable than I thought it would have. But it’s also given me a new perspective, much sooner than I…

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 2: What Fear Do You Want to Leave Behind?
#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 2: What Fear Do You Want to Leave Behind?
I’m not afraid of much. I’ve learned to accept that sometimes things happen and then you can’t change the past so you’ve got to move on with the future. I can handle rejection, I can handle the possibility of bodily harm, I can handle being left by someone I loved, I can’t really handle heights but that’s not the fear I’m leaving behind.
The fear I want to shed myself of is a simple one, one that…

#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 1: Introduce Yourself.
#NoFearForTheNewYear, Day 1: Introduce Yourself.
Hi, I’m Kristie. (That’s good, right? I can just do that and call it a day? I can’t? Well, okay.)
I’m not quite sure how to introduce myself. I’m a writer, actress, presenter, production assistant, editor, a content creator. I like to cook, bake, and go for walks. I’m a go-getter and I like to think I’m brave. I drink tea and love sunsets and sunrises.
This is starting to read like a cheesy…
