Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy! Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1901DM Dr. Wendy Suzuki was painfully shy growing up. Couldn't speak up in class. Couldn't join conversations she wanted to be part of. Years later, standing at the front of a lecture hall as a neuroscientist, she realized that shyness had made her a better teacher than almost anyone else. That's what she calls "good anxiety." Ninety percent of Americans report feeling anxiety on some level. Wendy explains what that chronic tension is quietly doing to your brain, your heart, your memory, and your ability to make decisions. The picture isn't pretty. But the solution isn't to eliminate anxiety. It's to understand it well enough to use it.

  • Hi, my name is Lewis Howes, and welcome to The Daily Motivation Show.

  • One of the superpowers in good anxiety that comes from your own anxiety,

  • and this is a beautiful example that you just told me, is the superpower of empathy.

  • For yourself or others?

  • First for yourself and recognizing it in yourself and then giving it out to others.

  • Because just as you described your journey,

  • a lot of our own anxieties have been with us since we were little.

  • Same anxiety.

  • They stay for decades.

  • For your lifetime sometimes.

  • What was yours?

  • So I have many, but the one that I talk about here is... shyness and kind of social anxiety.

  • And I've learned because I'm a teacher and because I want to become an author,

  • I've learned the skills not to have those kinds of anxieties.

  • But I was painfully shy as a young girl.

  • And even into college, I found myself in social situations

  • and wanting to join and not feeling comfortable or even in class.

  • And so...

  • I realized that that has become my superpower as a teacher

  • because I know when I'm standing at the front of the classroom.
