What keeps you from staying in action towards your desired goals? I can bet it’s that four letter word…FEAR. Maybe your first few baby steps toward your goal were a breeze. And then…it’s time to make a specific request from someone or get out to a networking meeting and say “who you are and what you do” in 30 seconds (when you’re not exactly sure who the heck you are yet!) Taking what feels like a big risk can stop you cold.

why are we so afraid to fail and to make mistakes? Many people say that this begins as an infant...that the fear of failing actually begins as a fear of falling... an innate fear that is instilled in us at birth as a means of protection from harm. At some point in our lives, this fear of falling becomes distorted, and we are afraid if we fail, we will fall. The fear of success plays into this fear of falling as well. If we reach a certain level of success, and we do not move higher, we will fall...and it will be painful. Learn how to overcome this.

Self-confidence is the #1 key to success. Several recent studies showed that self-esteem leads to career success, but that career success does not boost self-esteem.

When your energies aren't aligned, you can't figure out what to do next (or if you do, you push your way through it and then wonder why you feel exhausted, burned-out or frustrated).
