Think of it like this…
You’re at a dog park and see a dog you want to approach–and you’re scared.
Maybe you’ve been bitten in the past, maybe you just don’t get dogs or maybe
you’re unsure how to properly approach a dog this size/breed/you-name-it.
If the dog can sense your fear or reluctance, it might walk away…or worse.
However, if you approach the very same pooch with an open hand (and maybe a
treat for good measure), it’ll come right up to you, lick your hand and probably
become your new, fluffy best friend.
Now if you’ve ever been chomped on by a dog in the park, you’re
probably not going to waltz up to it with your palm out, are you?
Instead, you’re going to cower, hide, or just generally exude a vibe that you’re
not here for it.
So the dog will either ignore you, you’ll ignore it…or you’ll approach it in a weird
way and turn it off completely.
Sounds reasonable, right?
What I’m getting at is this: It’s not the dog that’s the issue. It’s your fear of the
dog.
Because if you could just learn to overcome your fears and ideas about what this
dog might do, or could do, or probably will do just because another dog has in
the past…
….you could completely change your relationship with dogs.
Luckily, you can change your relationship with dogs if you want–and you can do
the very same thing with your money.
