Overcome The Fear of Failure!

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. 2 Timothy 1:7 (New King James Version)

We must all learn to break free from the fear of failure. It is so common and so natural that we often fail to discern it in our lives. The fear of failure is a mental limiting factor. Why? One who fears limits his activities. They even often stop trying. The cowardice of conformity is a manifestation of the fear of failure. Any old dead fish can float downstream. Don't conform, be transformed by the renewing of your mind (Romans12: 2).

Some would say to you when you share your dream, but suppose you fail? Here is my take on it; "I would rather fail at attempting something great than to succeed at doing nothing." If you have failed before you are not alone, so don't be discouraged. Welcome to the human race. Failure is the foundation of success. Order comes out of chaos! A set-back is a set-up for a comeback! It takes lemons to make lemonade!

Henry Ford once said; Failure is only the opportunity to begin again more intelligently. So, resist fear, pick up the broken pieces, dust yourself off, choose faith and begin AGAIN more intelligently. In sales we say that every NO  from the customer gets you closer to a YES. Every failure learned from and intelligently handled in life gets you closer to SUCCESS!

The Never Failing Attitude
1. I never see failure as failure, but only as a learning experience.
2. I never see failure as failure, but only as a game I must play to win.
3. I never see failure as failure, but only as the opportunity to practice my techniques and perfect my performance.
4. I never see failure as failure, but only as feedback I need to change my course of direction.
5. I never see failure as failure, but only as an opportunity to develop my sense of humor.

Say this now: "I am not judged by the number of times I fail, but by the number of times I succeed, and the number of times I succeed is in direct proportion of the number of times I try again. I adopt the never failing attitude and win today. God has not given me the spirit of fear!"
