Dealing With Feelings

We had our monthly men’s meeting tonight and I talked about my book and showed them the initial copy.  I explained that I was terrified because of “putting myself out there” and the potentially life changing event of publishing.  I also spoke of the extreme sense of gratitude I had because of the whole journey.  I found myself repeating several times that “feelings are not rational”, especially with regards to the fear.  It was good to talk about the process and the associated feelings.
