We say, “I can’t fail, I won’t fail, there is only one option, success.
Positive mantras for some, for people like us however; mantras like this fill us with nothing but anxiety.
The overwhelming fear of failure, and of never being enough; we don't fail like others fail. When life says no to us, we dust ourselves off and persevere, but it is our spirit that is bruised. We shy away from opportunities and take little risk to avoid this feeling again, we tread, just lightly. We can be forever stuck in a cycle of inadequate work and duties and never reach our full potential due to the cost, possible failure.
We have to break the cycle of classifying failure as we do. I am one of these people. Individuals like us need to be reminded of our potential, sometimes this is masked as "failure”… It’s opportunity. Just, breath and take a chance…. it’s always worth it, no one ever looks back after success and regrets the journey. We are enough because of our journey.
