 How Can We Overcome The Fear Of Failure?

Writer By Leon From Lifehack 

Have you ever felt that?

That awkward feeling that stops you in your tracks.

You know it's time to take action and do something with your life.

Maybe you've known for some time now.

Then, that question pops into your head.

What if everything goes wrong?

What if I fail?

So you decide to stay where you are and do nothing.

Problem is that if you don't make mistakes, you will never achieve your goals.

You won't get the skills you need to get to the next level.

If you don't fail, you don't succeed.

That's the way life works.

But, how?

How Can We Overcome The Fear Of Failure?

In fact, how can we accept it as a part of the process of reaching our goals?

The answer is quite simple, actually.

Use your imagination.

You might be wondering... what?

Let me explain.

See, if you want to overcome the fear to fail, you have to set your eyes on the positive outcome you want to achieve.

It needs to be so real that your desire to get there is bigger than your fears.

Now, because you haven't tasted success yet, this is quite difficult to do.

So, next time you feel the fear of failure taking over, do this.

Close your eyes.

Then, put yourself in the best possible scenario for your outcome. 

Just imagine you are already there.

What is it like? How do you feel?

Allow your imagination to take over and think about every possible detail.

Stay in that place for as long as you can.

As you allow yourself to feel how success is like, your fear of failure will start fading away.

You won't be thinking any longer about all the things that could go wrong.

All that fear you were feeling before will be replaced with the motivation you need to start moving forward.

Do this every time the fear of failure comes knocking on your door.

I promise you'll see a difference.

The more you do it, the easier it will be.

Of course, this is something that takes practice.

To help you, I created a guide to teach you how to use your imagination to defeat the fear of failure.
