THIS HALLOWEEN, DO ONE SCARY THING!

As Halloween approaches this weekend, ghoulish costumes and haunting images will be everywhere. 

As entrepreneurs, and in life, we are constantly faced with unknowns. This year has certainly been a year of the unexpected and the unknown. 

As I was working on my #Holiday2020 trend report,  I started thinking about the spirit of fear that Halloween represents. I realized that I have cowered from doing too many things because I was afraid and made a deliberate intention not to celebrate fear. I decided that for Halloween, wouldn’t it be better serving if instead of being scary, I faced what causes me fear and instead,  “did something scary”. 

Wouldn’t it be a better annual ritual to eradicate fear than celebrate it?


The scary thing is different for everybody.  Maybe it’s admitting that you have a habit that is constantly holding you back personally and professionally. Maybe it’s  apologizing to a friend or colleague for a misunderstanding. Maybe it’s procrastinating or ending behavior that no longer serves you.

Whatever it is, this Halloween, follow in the #2020 trend and turn the tables on what’s familiar. Ask yourSelf what’s scary for you and address it, change it and Stop it.  It’s not easy but it’s worth it. Everything you want is on the other side of fear. DO THE SCARY THING.❤️
