Look at “Failing” as More of a Positive

We do not like to fail at something, so we immediately perceive it as a terrible thing, and we tend to fear failure a great deal.
Yes, failure can be a terrible thing, at first. Hopes get squashed and disappointment ensues shortly thereafter.
Then comes the feelings of anxiety, embarrassment, and the wondering of what to do next.
When you think about all of the times you have failed at something, think about what happened after that, even months or years later, when you were faced with a similar situation.
More than likely, you did things differently the next time around, and were successful!
Failure is not a bad thing, it actually is just one step towards reaching your goals and dreams better the next time around.
Live a fearless life by laughing at any failure, and don’t give up.
Of course, it’s not always easy, but what better option have you got?

Do Not Try to Make Everyone Happy
If you find that you are a “yes person”, one who says “yes” to everyone for fear of disappointing them, try to understand that you also need to focus on you and what works for you.
After all, you only have one life, and it is important to be in a happy and positive state of mind.
Trying to please others in lieu of pleasing yourself may ultimately make you dissatisfied with your life.
Living a fearless life sometimes means not worrying about what others think of you; as long as you do the best you can and know deep down that you are doing just that, you will learn to not worry about what others think.
This is not the same as being selfish, by any means, it is just not always sacrificing your quality of life for others because you are fearful of making them upset.

Face Your Fears
Living a fearless life means to face your fears and acknowledge them.
Fears are way more bearable once we uncover them.
When you become fearful, of whatever it may be, rather than ignoring it, becoming more anxious, or changing yourself to adapt to the fears, just face them.
When you admit your fears, the power of those fears becomes significantly less, and when you work on your mindset on how to deal with the fears, they may go away altogether.
To learn how to face your fears, talk to a trusted friend, a counselor, your spouse, or read a self-help book that gives strategies on how to face them.
One of the lessons I learned at Tony Robbins’ event in London was to turn fear into power.
At his UPW seminar, he taught people to use fear and create breakthroughs. Admitting what scares you in this life and taking action to stop those fearful feelings will greatly benefit you in the long run!
