Fearful of Our Failures?

I never really understood the saying, "We aren't fearful of our failures, it's our success that we most fear." (Or something like that)

I never really understood that saying until I started TRYING to change my life.

Ya see, I would always find excuses to stay stuck. I would blame others, or compare myself over and over to people who seemed lucky. My stubborn self would also self sabotage bc I had this belief that I CAN figure this out on my own only to discover that I was putting a ceiling on every one of my goals by not allowing myself to grow & learn from others.

When we try to do anything good for ourselves too often we think it won't workout anyhow, so why try....or we think if I do this DIFFERENT thing, will I be judged for it?

So we sink back, dim our light and dim our dream to make others feel comfortable. We don't want to shine TOO bright in fear that others will feel judged by it if they don't ALSO try to change themselves. So we stop before we even really start.

We choose to stay stay stuck. We stay frustrated. We stay MEDIOCRE and we envy those that are doing that different thing. We could choose a different path. Even the THOUGHT of change gives us anxiety over what our day to day would look like.

So instead we stay inside our comfort zones because when we do not move away from the familiar we at least know the outcome is somewhat comfortable....or should I say "kinda bearable?!?!"

So the BIG question is ...what causes some people to change and some people to remain stuck?

I think it's in the TRYING. Change happens over time out of small trys that eventually become small wins, which add up BIG CHANGES in the years to come.

Time will pass regardless, TRY friends. Just TRY. It's not going to be easy but over time you eventually become the type of person who CAN handle the challenges that arise.

If I can believe you were put on this earth for greatness then I need to believe it for myself too. And not just believe it, but ACT on that belief.

We can do this friend. I've decided & I've committed to this and if you need a friend to support you over judge you for your decision to TRY just know I'm here for you.

Btw, maybe we are similar and you are also looking for something that could help you too. If you would like to chat about what's helped me (physically, emotionally nutritionally and even financially) then let's chat ❤ Please fill this out and I will be in touch soon. ❤
