Why is it that you fear being a failure? Where does that come from? Is it previous experiences? Maybe you've got people around you telling you that you are no good or it won't work out? Do people tell you not to be so stupid? Whose fear exactly are you feeling? Is it your own or other people's limitations?
If you think about it babies and children have no fear of failure? It's a learnt behaviour. At what point do you start to doubt your own ability and feel that you might fail? And anyway what exactly is failure? Who says that whatever you have done is a failure? By whose standards are you judging yourself?
I want you to remove the word failure from your vocabulary. Ok so things may not turn out how you expected and I will be very surprised if they do every time. Look upon it as feedback. Maybe your expectations were too high in the first place and you were setting yourself up to 'fail'. Maybe you needed to do a little more preparation. 'Fail to prepare is to prepare to fail'.
So give yourself a break and go out there and get on with life. Take action and have fun.
Best wishes,
Noelyne
