Embracing Fear

Embrace Your Fears!

I'll be honest with you – embracing my past failures was very hard for me. There were things about “me” I just didn’t want to celebrate. 

However, taking an introspective look at my past failures I have come to realize everything that happened to “me” in the past made me the successful person I am today.

There are three fears, which lead directly to underachievement: fear of failure, fear of success, and fear of making a mistake. You can’t change your past failures, however, you can learn from it, accept it and embrace it, and recognize that it made you the person you are today. If you have regrets about your past, stop dwelling on them and realize those regrets does not enhance who you are or who you are going to become. 

Holding onto past hurts, pass fears and angers weighs us down like an anchor. If we try to sail through life with an anchor behind us, we will find ourselves stuck in the same harbor. If we just release the anchor, we would be able to move faster and succeed more easily.

Release YOUR Anchors 

Anchors such as anger, resentment, and the desire for revenge can waste valuable energy that could be directed towards a positive action. When we allow ourselves to focus on our past regrets, it begins to feed on us and consume our emotions and create unnecessary anxieties.

By learning how to release these negative emotions enables us to be free of our past and allows us to embrace our future.

Instead, focus on the present and how you want to make your future better.  Love “who you are” and appreciate the experiences you’ve had, both good and bad.  Don’t live with thoughts of “should “of’s” or “could “of’s” because you will lose yourself in them if you do.

As it has been said, “Every success story has a trail of failures behind it.”
