Overcome Fear – Action Plan Page

Overcome Fear – Action Plan Page

• One-page action plan that helps you take a clear, calculated step on something you keep putting off because of fear.

• Walks you through naming what you’re afraid of, writing how you’ll reduce the risk, and deciding in advance what you’ll do if things still go wrong.

• Use it when you’re stuck on a launch, move, message, or decision and want a written plan you can trust instead of looping on “what if.”

Evidence: Based on research showing that writing about difficult thoughts and feelings can reduce distress and support better outcomes on challenging goals (Frattaroli, 2006, meta-analysis on expressive writing) and that concrete “if this happens, then I will do that” implementation plans improve follow-through across many domains (Gollwitzer & Sheeran, 2006, meta-analysis on implementation intentions).
