EP 8: 'I am so afraid / worried (fill in the blank) ' - How to overcome fear and worries in Home Education 3a716h

All of us Home Educators feel this emotion on this journey - fear, which is related to anxiety and worry.  "Have I done enough for my children?"  "What if I have gotten it all wrong?"  "Am I failing my kids?"  In this episode, I share my reflections on this emotion to unpack it, and suggest some strategies to tackle it: 1) Making Home Education a mission  2) Turn fear on itself and instead of thinking "what if", think about "what if not?" - What is the price or trade off if we are not homeschooling our children?  3) Take action, one small step at a time. Taking action forces us to confront the fear, thinking about it just makes it bigger and more paralysing.  We need to build faith to overcome fear - and faith, as Bob Proctor says, is about seeing the invisible, believing the incredible and achieving the impossible. We need to focus on the way forward, one step at a time.  1h5j4i
