Overcome your fear of failure and create the life you want
If we truly want to create a life worth being proud of, we have to overcome our fear of failure.
by: E.B. Johnson
No matter who you are, you’ve experienced failure at some point in your life. We can experience failure in our expectations, our goals and even our romantic lives. It’s a permeating sort of defeat that runs deep and strong, and it can happen to anyone at any point or stage of their lives or careers.
Failing is common, but it’s an experience that can invoke some deep-seated fears and insecurities that seriously undermine our happiness and wellbeing. When your fear of failure becomes so big that it starts holding you back from the things you want in life — there’s a problem that needs to be addressed, and it needs to be addressed quickly.
The fear of failing.
Understanding our fear of failure is the only way to overcome it, but that takes understanding first what failure really is. Failure can look different to all of us, because we all have different benchmarks, value systems and beliefs. What is failure to one person isn’t always failure to another person, but we all experience it at one point or another in our lives.
