I have something I REALLY want to do. Something is holding me back… I’m getting in my own way.
So I’ve been journaling about fear of failure. It’s something I struggle with (on & off, not always). My Mom told me “its good to struggle” so it’s ok.
Today I found an old post of mine, reminding me;
The only way to NOT fail, is to do nothing – even then you will not achieve the results you are looking for.
I’ve moved an engraved piece of steel back to directly under my monitor that says
“What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?”
To remind me that taking action and moving forward, regardless of the result, is my first measure of success.
