It’s time to move forward and stop letting self-doubt and the opinions of others paralyze you. Here are 2 ways to take action and overcome your fear of failure.  

1. Acknowledge the Source of Your Fear

A wise person once said that most people aren’t afraid of failing. In reality, many are scared that people will see them try.

What are you truly afraid of? What's holding you back from going after your dreams?

Are you worried that people will criticize or make fun of you? They might, but that's their problem--not yours.

Have you seen others fail and want to avoid sharing their fate? Just because things didn't work out for someone else, doesn't mean it won't work for you.

Once you identify the root of your anxiety, you can combat it with the truth and eliminate fear for good.

2.  Believe the Best

Unless you have a time machine laying around somewhere, or the divine ability to see into the future, you don't know what's going to happen.

The idea of the future that you have in your mind is just that--an idea.

You have the power to imagine a positive future or a negative future. Why not choose to believe the best?
