5 Ways to Overcome Your Most Common Fears About Work

It's a human trait to seek the attention and praise of others.

When you genuinely find something to like in others, they usually respond in kind. Be friendly to everyone. Be confident you are a likable person.

Fear of failure can make us reluctant to try new, challenging projects.

Remember there is no such thing as perfect. Be willing to try new things and do them imperfectly.

There are many reasons anyone can get fired: For example, the company can lose key customers. We can’t always control it, but we can plan for it. 

• Know the industry and where your company fits in that market. 
• Ask your boss what you can do to help alleviate workload and make progress with projects and goals.
• Keep a list of your accomplishments so you can use them if you suddenly need to update your resume.
