Episode description

In this episode, we're going to talk about why entrepreneurs experience fear of success and 5 steps to overcome this type of fear.

It’s crazy to think that as business owners we can be afraid of our own success. There are a number of reasons why this happens. You may be questioning wether you’re worthy of success, wether you’d be able to keep up with success or how people may perceive you. Sometimes there are legitimate reasons to hold off on a project that could lead to greater success. Other times, it’s you making excuses. Here are 5 steps to work through your fear of success.

Action Plan:

1 - Identify your excuses: Recognize the excuses you've been making for not achieving your goals, as these may be masking deeper fears of success.

2 - Examine your excuses: Critically analyze your excuses to determine if they are valid or simply cover-ups for underlying issues.

3 - Uncover the real issue: Dig deeper to identify the true reason behind your reluctance to pursue your goals, which may be rooted in a fear of success.

4 - Rewrite your narrative: Reframe your story by replacing negative, self-limiting beliefs with a positive, empowering perspective on the potential outcomes of your success.

5 - Take action: Once you've addressed your fears, take concrete steps to move forward and achieve your goals, as inaction will only perpetuate the cycle of fear.
