One of the side effects of going bigger with your message and putting yourself out there is self-doubt.
Even when you’re excited about what you’re working on, self-doubt can creep in.
Self-doubt can masquerade as procrastination, boredom, shiny object syndrome, distractions, filling up your to-do lists and calendar, even deciding to clean those areas of the house that never get cleaned.
