Fear of Setting Goals

How are you doing? What kind of trouble have you got yourself into these days? Do you have everything you want? And I mean EVERYTHING?

Why aren't we all success stories? We should be, right? It's what we all want, isn't it? Is it Fear? Are we afraid of something? Is it the Fear of Failure? "I don't wanna fail, so if I don't do it, I won't fail!"

What the heck is that? But many of us think that way. "I'm scared of Failure..." What about the Dark? Are you still afraid of the dark? No, you just turn on the light, right. How hard is that. You turn on the switch, right? The first time you had to find the switch. But once you found it, you knew you could do it.

I want you to try to fail. Yes. Try to fail. Make the attempt to achieve your goal. I want you to fail many times. But I'll tell you, after a while, you'll get so sick of failing, you'll achieve your goal and move on.

You see, each time you "fail" you are making an attempt to accomplish something. Each time you learn something new. And after a while, you will stop failing and start to accomplish something.

You should embrace your fear. Fall in love with your fear. And as soon as you do that, the fear disappears. Fear is a big chicken, a a scaredy cat! Fear runs a way at the first sign of confrontation.

I DARE you to face your fear. And once you do... you'll be so much happier, so much more confident.
