The Fear of Success

This seems far fetched. Why would anybody in their right mind be fearful of success? This question seems obvious but actually, this does exist. Many people subconsciously sabotage their efforts, in many arenas.

The fear of success keeps many from actually obtaining it. They purposely implant negativity regarding all aspects of their daily lives and as small or large failures occur, reinforce this negativity.

Consider situations in your daily routines. Maybe you are fixing something in your home and due to circumstances, you ended having to contact a repairman to come in and complete the job. In doing so you made the statement to yourself or the repairman, “I just can’t seem to do anything right. I end up paying more in the end.”

This is a defeatist statement due to the one word; can’t. Other examples of defeatist terms would be;

• I never…
• I fail…
• Nothing I…
• My problem…

There is a pattern here with negative verbiage. We all use it and most of the time without realizing. Each time this seed is planted in our minds and nurtured. By allowing negative thought to infiltrate our minds, it becomes believed.

As you are moving yourself towards success but your mind remains in negative thoughts, it becomes difficult for success to occur. Allowing these thoughts to be dominating, success will not be at your door so when things fail you can just say that nothing will happen for you.

Success Requires Your Mental Change

Negativity allows for multiple excuses. Excuses allow for the easy way out, the easy way out to failure. So if you are serious about success, it is time to begin the necessary changes that allow for it.

Our minds are extremely powerful. It controls every part of you so change it now to begin the adventure into success-ville. This change may take a long time because the negative has been there for a long time. Starting today, if you are reading this, your change must begin in order for success to be realized.

You and I are changing right now; Me by writing, you by reading. Positive thoughts are going to go inside our minds by our own words, actions and affirmations. Talk about success coming to you and how you are going to handle it. Write out a success plan that begins at this moment.

What is it you will do differently starting now? And realize each negative thought you have from hereon, must be replaced with a positive affirmation. Success is there for anyone of us and if we bring it to us, mentally, it will show up. Look into that mirror everyday and affirm your belief, desire and willingness to be successful and find one thing, every day, to provide your pathway to success to complete.

It can be done and shall only be completed once your belief and knowledge that your mind starts this process. By removing negativity and replacing with positive, there can be no stopping your travels. I am going to be successful regardless of what I have to do to be.
