In life, stepping out of your comfort zone seems like the biggest decision that most of us are not willing to take. There is one common reason taking a risk is the hardest thing to do– failure. When we are crippled by the fear of failure, our toxic beliefs consume us.
Even if we can perform the task, we choose to be on the safer side because we feel that failure will never be an option. Sadly, we are the ones that cannot forgive ourselves if we commit mistakes.
The way others see us doesn’t really matter because we are the ones who know ourselves better, but why is it so easy to surrender to their criticisms?
When we allow fear of failure to take control, we will have the tendency to blame ourselves or make some excuses if we think the task is difficult to accomplish. Instead of becoming a slave to your negative thoughts, consider these reasons why you should not allow failure to be in total control.
