Inner Whizdom

Sometimes my default reaction to a question or challenge is deer-in-the-headlights panic that I know nothing and will be found out as a fraud. If I can give myself a little time and space the fear dissipates and my sense returns. It helps to remember that the answers I’m being asked for are smart human-sized, not complete detailed solutions to world economic collapse. I don’t have to have everything all figured out by myself immediately.

I am a smart human. Fear just shuts off my brain. If I can let it pass I have access to my wisdom again. And that’s enough.
