## Resource

In this episode, I explain why worry is one of the greatest sources of interference between you and where you want to be or better. When you focus your attention and intention on imagined problems, you create resistance instead of possibilities. I talk about replacing worry with purposeful action, building confidence through consistent daily behaviors, and staying present instead of fearing the future. Most importantly, I discuss how clearing the interference allows you to create more opportunities, options, and touches of favor in the consistent, persistent pursuit of your potential.
