Fear Of Failing

Many individuals at most time of there lives are greatly particular about their failures. The feeling gets so large on them that they end up under-achieving of what they are capable of. They become too judgmental about oneself to an extent of avoiding the risk of trying. As a matter of fact, they fail to realize, that there is nothing to loose but gain.

Such people continue their work and their life by seeing people around them passing by and scaling new heights — and latter are the set of individuals who could be with lesser potentials than the “Content where we are” type.

While all this is fine if you are content to be where you are but from the above set of people, there is a category which crib about the outcome too — but to themselves. They know that they have potential, but instead of leveraging it, they CRIB. This leads to lot of emotional turmoil, depleted productivity, alienation from the society and even straining of personal relationships due to increased frustration level. At the end, the impact is aplenty.

One of my friend always say — “If you try, You risk SOMETHING but if you don’t — You risk EVERYTHING”

So, to the people out there who falls in this category, a word of advice is — Go out in the Storm , make use of the time at hand, for soon there will be a time when you would be too old to be adventurous. There is light and immense joy at the end of tunnel, so come out of it and cross it fast.

Remember one thing — 99 failures means nothing if the 100th attempt take you to a place you want to be. Also, you will be same as the person succeeding in the first attempt if both of you are at same destination.

Have a nice weekend.
