Are You Afraid To Fail?

Hey, Nick Hanson from Cadre. How are you today, folks? Just wanted to talk a little bit about fear of failure. And I certainly have that fear a lot. And the only antidote I know to it is to take action. And so if I'm feeling that, that fear of failure, I need to take some sort of action, and that helps to solve it. Now, the action could be counterintuitive in some way. It's like if I am, you know, fearing a relationship problem, I may call a friend who's had a similar experience, or maybe I'll go for a walk around the block and kind of quit thinking about it.

I do know that if I focus on the problem, then the problem usually grows. But if I focus on the solution, then the solution grows. And I think, you know, right now, in this time of. Of constant flux of the year, external, right, the flux of the external, which is coronavirus changing in different ways. The workforce, job opportunities changing, all these things outside of our external control. But what we can control is our internal reaction to these different things. So we could think of it as we can try to vibe higher, you know?

And so that's what I'm kind of focusing right now is my internal game. I'm getting, you know, the meditation in, in the morning. I'm getting exercise in. I'm. I'm trying to think of others. I'm praying, and, you know, I'm trying to raise my own vibrations because that's within my, you know, control. Externally, I don't always have as much control, but internally I do. And so if I'm. If I'm vibing at the highest vibration that I can, then life seems to, you know, be, get good, and I can accept, you know, if I can accept anything that's going on on the outside, you know, that's a really big deal.

So I don't know how I got from fear of failure to vibing higher, but I think there's some correlation there, because the higher I'm vibing, then I can take actions then that are going to help me get over that, that fear of failure, because fear and love, you know, cannot coexist. And also faith, you know, and the Bible, not to get biblical here, but the Bible talks about the faith of a mustard seed. And so if you just have that little mustard, that little mustard seed, right, then that can grow into something bigger.

And just a tiny bit of faith goes such a long way. So I want to just practice having more faith, more faith. And maybe that helps get over the fear of failure as well. And no matter what, no man or woman is an island. We need each other to be able to do this, which also is going to help us get over that fear of failure. So a couple of thoughts for you tonight. Hope you're having a good one. Talk to you later. Bye.
