Fear of success and Failing

Are you afraid of success or failing? Do you feel that success is an unreachable goal? Or perhaps you keep focusing on your fear of failing?

Fear of success

You might have a great idea for opening your own business, yet your business might not succeed and you might come up with various excuses for why your business hasn’t succeeded. If you want to analyze this kind of situation, you will find that you went through various times in your life which have caused you to have this fear of success, yet these are things that most of us go through in life. The truth behind this fear is what I call “fear of success.” We all go through rough times, but we all overcome such problems and focus on success.

Let me tell you if you don’t believe that you will succeed, then most likely you will not. You have to convince your subconscious mind that you will succeed and that you are capable of success.

Fear of failing

Fear of failing is like fear of success, it is detrimental to every human being. When you are afraid of failing, you start to procrastinate, and avoid taking any action to achieve what you want to achieve and if you do, you will not continue and end up giving up.

To overcome your fear of success or failing, follow the below steps:

1. Focus on the best scenarios-

You need to focus on the best scenarios and stop imagining the worst kids of scenarios that might occur in achieving your goals. If you are stay worried, then whatever negative qualities you think might happen, will probably happen.

2. Be realistic-

Know that any goal you want to accomplish, might take months or even a few years until you be able to see solid results. If you don’t get the desired results that you seek in the first few months, do not give up. Keep trying until you achieve your goal.

3. Get support-

Find some people from your family, friends, or anyone else that will support you in what you are doing. It will help to have some kind of support whenever you want to achieve a specific goal.

4. Take some rest and meditate-

Believe it or not, taking some time to relax and meditate every day will help you to get rid of stress and will clear your mind, so you can focus on the desired results that you want to accomplish and see happening in your life.

5. Plan-

You have to have a well thought out plan. Having a good plan will reduce stress , will make you feel calm, and will help you to focus on your goal.

Clarify Your Objectives

Posted by Robbie

Sep 2

Many people confuse goals and objectives and in fact it’s true that the terms are often used interchangeably. I prefer to differentiate between the two for my own purposes and those I work with. Goals are usually more general in nature and less tangible. Objectives tend to be more specific and “visionable.” I think I might have made that word up, but it suits my definition so I’m using creative license here. What I mean by that term, “visionable” is that you can picture the objective in your mind – see it, hear it, taste it and feel it. I like to think of goals as “big picture” ideas. Objectives are more nitty-gritty.

For example, I want to lose 20 pounds by January 1st is a decent goal. It meets all the S.M.A.R.T. requirements. But it’s sort of “flat.” I will lose 20 pounds so that I can fit into my size “whatever” pants, be healthy and run a 5k by January 1st is a better objective. You can almost see yourself wearing your smaller pants and feel the exhilaration of running that race. It is more “real” and therefore much more effective for our purposes. I am not knocking goals, but for today let’s focus on clarifying your objectives instead.

Let’s try another example. I intend to start my own business, replace my income and quit my job by June 1st. Okay.

What does the objective look like?

What type and form of business?
What is the real purpose or intention?
What is the specific amount of income needed?
What will your work schedule look like?
What will your work environment consist of? At home or in office?
Will you have employees?

I intend to start a catering business for parties operating out of my home kitchen by June 1st. I will employ two part time employees and gross $200,000 annually.

Do you see the difference? This objective is much clearer and more “real” to me. This also makes it much more motivating and actionable.

Take a look at each one of your objectives and make sure it is so clear you can almost reach out and touch it!
