How to overcome the fear of failure
I’ve reached a time in my life where things sort of feel SURREAL. Surreal because AS I’m living inside my own life experience, I am completely blown away BY the life experience I’m living. Crazy, right?
But it was not always that way. I have had a lot of very REAL moments. Real moments filled with struggle, doubt, loneliness and questioning myself.
I can’t tell you how many times over the past 20 years I thought “Yup, I’m gonna be out of business in 30 days, or 30 minutes, or had no idea how I was gonna pay this bill or that bill.
I think back to my very first office which was a tiny walk-in closet. Now I look around and see a team of amazing people around me. A team who I recites our guiding principles as they start meetings–even when I’m not there. This is so powerful because for so long, I was in this alone. Nobody understood my vision. Heck I couldn’t even explain or clearly define it.
So, when I see this incredible growth, I know for sure that your RESILIENCE and WILLPOWER are greater than any CIRCUMSTANCE around you.
In this week’s episode of the Lisa Nichols Show, I explain the ONE common denominator I used to overcome the fear of failure every time. And trust me, there were a lot of those times over 20 years.
I invite you to watch this episode and hear about how the fire in my belly was SO strong that even though I was in deep debt, my will and resiliency were deeper. And that’s why I’m on fire now for teaching people all over the world how to master GETTING BACK UP and bouncing back.
You see, your past does not equal your future. Your yesterday does not equal your today or tomorrow. So, the mistakes of last month or last year DO NOT define your next decision.
Reinvention is available to everybody every day! There’s a whole lotta “RE’s” you can do – RESET, RESTART, RECOMMIT, RECHARGE, REDESIGN, and REDIRECT.
The “RE’s” are the story of my life. The “RE’s” saved me from being 30 days or 30 minutes away from shutting down my business. When I felt like quitting it all, I’d stop and recommit. I’d redesign the strategy and release the old strategy that wasn’t working.
Remember, this is your home. And in this community, we have delicious, courageous conversations. If this week’s episode resonated with you, please share your biggest #BOL (breakthrough out loud) or Aha moment. I’d love to read them. Share your greatest passion with me – the one you are willing to climb over anything that comes your way. The one where there is no plan B so you just keep tweaking plan A.
And if you have not subscribed to my channel yet, there is no time like the present! Do it now and be a part of this amazing tribe!
I RECOMMIT to you that every time I say I BELIEVE in you and I LOVE you, it’s because I do!
