You
Don't Have Time To Be Nervous
~ By Jan Tincher Copyright

Well, if you have time in your busy schedule to do something, why choose to use that time up getting nervous? Because, you know, it is a choice. However you use your time, you have either consciously or subconsciously made that choice to use your time in that manner. Why not actively choose to do something else with that time? Decide that right now. You are a busy person. You don't have time to be nervous. Instead, why not take that time learning how NOT to be nervous? Let's say you don't like to talk in front of crowds. You get nervous when you have to stand in front of them, let alone talk. Well, guess what? You have the time right there -- because you are taking the time right there -- to be nervous or to make the effort at that time NOT to be nervous! What do you think would be a wise choice on how to spend that precious time? Whenever you think about what makes you nervous, which means you are probably starting to get nervous right then, instead look at your watch and realize you don't have time for that. Why don't you have time for that? Because you'd rather be doing this exercise! Here is the exercise that will take away nervousness forever: Stand up. Walk five feet forward. That wasn't so bad, was it? Now, walk the five feet backward. Easy, huh? All right. Now, walk the five feet forward while thinking about walking backward. A little complicated, right? But not bad. Now, walk the five feet backward while thinking about walking forward. Now, walk forward while thinking about walking backward and holding your left arm out and turning your wrist in circles to the right. Still doing OK? Now, walk backward while thinking about walking forward and holding your left arm out and turning your wrist in circles to the right and holding your right arm out and turning your wrist in circles to the left. Still doing OK? Chances are it was a little difficult. But guess what? The more difficult you made it the less you were able to think about something else. Like being nervous. In fact, the whole time you are doing this exercise, mentally say *This is GREAT!* Now, here's another exercise to do AFTER you've done that several times a day for 3 days. (If you've done it several times, then it has a path in your mind. It will be easier to recall.) Think about getting nervous, or about whatever makes you nervous, then IN YOUR MIND do the above exercise. Think about getting nervous, or about whatever makes you nervous, then IN YOUR MIND do the above exercise. Think about getting nervous, or about whatever makes you nervous, then IN YOUR MIND do the above exercise. Think about getting nervous, or about whatever makes . . . You get the picture, don't you? Do this 10 times, or until your mind just doesn't want to think about getting nervous anymore. Guess
what? You've just made life a little easier for
yourself! And isn't that fantastic? Good luck! Thanks for reading, Jan P.S.
