Phil Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Do you fear success (as a thing) or do you experience emotion fear alongside a connotation about success? Success is very snowflake. What comes to mind as to what success is? Quote Mention YouTube Website Sessions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Change is a scary thing for some people. Ive gone through it so many times so I should be able to tolerate this.

Devin Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 (edited) Success comes with the possibility of losing what you gain, failing, very scary. Edited September 15 by Devin Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 3 hours ago, Orb said: I experience fear. Success is making more money and taking more risks and also being more responsible. Making more money is making more money. Taking more risks is taking more risks. Being more responsible is being more responsible. How is any of that success, such that the guidance of fear is felt? There must be something interpretation wise which is being added. It might be as simple as believing you know what’s going to happen, even though the belief doesn’t resonate. The peace would be that you actually don’t know. The joy would be consciously creating, which is only ever possible now. The concept of success might be covering this up mentally and emotionally.

MetaSage Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 You don't fear success. You fear being successful and screwing it up. Clarify your fear. You want success. Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almond Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 the word success can be overrated. first defining what successful mean for you and go for what's wanted plain and simple. The afterthought would be how am i faring, how is it going etc.. Whichever which way it's happening, is working out anyway Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Maynor Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago I'll add my 2 cents in from my experience. You don't fear success, you fear what you think is necessary to attain success. You fear the changes you think you will need to make to succeed. Your mind makes it seem like in order to succeed, you will need to endure a huge amount of pain. This is half true. Why? Because you would already have the success otherwise. If it were a no brainer and easy you would just go ahead and do it now. The barrier between you and success is a bunch of cause and effect relations that you can't have other systems do for you. You must do them. That's scary because it seems like a lot of work. Self-help is about doing those things and the requirements for you doing them. Yeah it's work, but life is work. You make a good plan, you get your resources in order, and you get started, and you persistently see it through to the end. You have to take responsibility and do the work. It's like an exercise routine, there's no easy way to do your workout. Some of this is developing a healthier relationship with pain and adversity to where you're kinda married to it instead of divorced from it. No pain no gain. Things that are rare and valuable are that way because they require a measure of pain and delayed gratification to achieve. They're not low hanging fruit, they require a plan, waiting, action, more waiting, more action, and then maybe if you're lucky finally success.
