Fear of Failure


"Fear of failure has one thing in common with all of our other fears: it is a feeling and not a fact."

Can someone please remind me of this when I get scared about not accomplishing something?  Please?  Because I guarantee I'll need to hear it again at some point. That point will probably be relatively soon.  

According to Terri Cole :

Knowing what is driving your behavior is key.

Answer the questions below about your fear of failure to help you gain clarity.

  1. How is this fear of failure holding you back?
  2. What would life be like if you did not have this fear?
  3. Who are you afraid of disappointing if you fail?
  4. How strong is your desire to release this fear?
  5. If there were one step you could take to overcome this fear, what would it be?
