Summary
Have you ever avoided setting a goal because you were afraid of how it might feel to fail? You’re not alone. The truth is that no one likes how it feels when they fail. You often go through life trying to avoid failure at all costs. But are you afraid of failing because of what it means, or is it because of the whirlwind of emotions failure can release?
Kristen is back from her own personal coaching intensive and she’s ready to get deep into the feelings of failure and how fearing those emotions that revolve around failure could be what’s holding you back from success. Get ready to feel all the feels and maybe have some tissues handy while you listen to this week’s episode.
Here are a few highlights:
-
Why you’ve been conditioned to avoid failure
-
Recognizing how our bodies experience fear, and what additional emotions come along with it
-
The importance of creating self-awareness
-
How perfectionism is a sneaky way to avoid failure and its negative emotions
-
The detrimental side effects of the I’m fine mindset
-
How success comes from willing to feel the negative emotions
Embracing failure may sound like a crazy idea, but the truth of the matter is that the path to success is littered with it. Instead of convincing yourself that you don’t need to reach your goals just so you can avoid failing, trust the process and get used to disappointment. You’ll get there.
