Where does fear of failure stop you?

Many people might not want to admit that they have this fear. It feels kind of lame, right? “If I admit it, people might think less of me”, we whisper to ourselves.  

We hear everywhere ‘You get what you focus on!’ So why do we continue to fear?

Here’s the thing.

We don’t fear failure because we want to. We continue to fear it because we have something called a ‘limbic system’ that is there to try and keep us safe. 

We fear failure because somewhere in the past we had an experience of it, which certainly did not feel great. Our limbic system is doing the best it can to protect us from another occurrence. 

Furthermore, it’s not really ‘failure’ that we fear, either. Failure is just a word that cannot harm us.

What we really fear, is the result of a failure.

And that is most often the feelings or emotions that we experience.

Difficult emotions like embarrassment, humiliation, shame, guilt, disappointing someone, letting someone down, the look in their eye, the regret, the sadness… maybe even rejection, and an absence of love. An icy silence maybe.

That is what we really fear.

This fear stops us from so much. It can prevent us from

• enjoying our work
• finding new work
• writing a book
• reaching for a goal
• learning a new skill
• practicing a hobby we love
• growth and development
• progress

It can also lead to:

• trying too hard
• perfectionism
• working on a project for far longer than necessary
• exhaustion
• never resting or taking time out

In this 90 min class you can: 

• Reflect on your own understanding of and background with failure
• Learn a more helpful association with this word
• Release (through targeted, effective EFT tapping) layers of the emotions that ‘failure’ can cause: shame, embarrassment, humiliation, overwhelm, stress, guilt and more
• Create a new frame for yourself around progress

Take this class to put in place the start of a sustainable way to view progress, perfection, failure and enjoyment.

Will all your fear be gone after these 90 minutes? 

I would be selling you snake oil if I said yes. The answer is: I don’t know, because you are a unique individual with a background I don’t know the first thing about. 

Here’s what I can say: 

Every person who attends my workshops usually feels lighter, has deep insights, makes progress on their issue, and releases chunks of the challenge. 

At the end of the workshop, I’ll share ways at you can continue to make progress.
