Every Failure is a Step to Success!

“34.2 million Americans experience some phobia of failure. The most common is personal failure.” This illustrates that their are 34.2 million people not living their best lives because of themselves and YOU might be one of them!

There is a constant internal struggle betweens stepping outside of your comfort zone and achieving the life you dream of and the fear that lives on the other side of that door. There is a factor of things that prohibit us from pursuing our goals. Judgement, unemployment, isolation are just a few haunting thoughts that are behind the pretty dream. Many people don’t even attempt any of their goals unless its guaranteed success because there phobia is so strong. This phobia keeps them in a constant cycle of dissatisfaction and low-self esteem but at least their comfortable right?!

Failure is all about perspective. In reality outside of your anxiety, every failure is a stepping stone to your ideal goals. Even when you discover something you dislike you’re one step closer to finding something that you do like but when we don’t attempt to discover our own personal interest we are stuck unsatisfied with our own choices. You’re always in control of the direction that you want your life to reflect. Everything you desire , the universe wants to deliver to you but you can’t be in your own way.

We have to fail to become better at our craft or our interest. Failure is not personal it is apart of success. We must learn to embrace it as that instead of allowing it to discourage us . Once we embrace a fearless attitude towards failure, will we be able to reach our fullest potential . We must allow ourselves to be students always even when we’ve become masters to fully evolve to the highest form in our crafts.
