Summary

Do you avoid going after what you most want? Are you holding yourself back, hesitating, waiting?

Why?

Usually, because we're scared. Scared of it not working out. Of trying and not getting the outcome we want. Of failing. And then all the stuff we associate to failing, like embarrassment, shame, and being "a failure."

Join Dr. Aziz in the second half of his insight-packed interview with author of the best-selling book, Go For No, as the two of them explore the concept of failure and how to rid yourself of fear of it.
