THE FEAR OF FAILURE

The fear of death is just one of many fears we may have. The truth is, we have all kinds of fears; fear of heights, fear of spiders, fear of public speaking and various kinds of fears. I want to talk precisely on a different kind of fear that affects the core of our being - The Fear of Failure.

There are many reasons why the fear of failure gets a stranglehold on us. It could be rooted in the fear of what other people think of us. We do not want others to think negatively of us. Perhaps we do not want to live with bad thoughts about ourselves so we don't even try to do things, thinking we are protecting ourselves from feelings of failure.

Whatever the case, the fear of failure can be so strong that it can keep us from stepping out and taking on challenges and risks. If you want to be a courageous person who never gives up, you need to squarely face this kind of fear. The Fear of failure will keep you from going to/reaching the next level in life. It could even prevent you from taking the first step towards your goal. It can hold you back from doing and becoming everything God has for you if you don't confront and conquer it.

Always remember, when you take steps to face your fear of failure and deal with it, God will help you overcome failure itself. Remember that people never fail unless they stop trying. When we do make mistakes along the way, we can always learn from them and allow them to add wisdom to our lives. We can "fail forward!"
