- My fear of Failure kicks in and the need to not fail takes over

- Past failures and the voice of my mother saying you will never amount to anything ringing in my ears.
@WorkingitThrough2 I have spent a lot of my life fearing failure. But I never found any way to avoid failure. The greatest lessons I learned were from my mistakes.
My latest conclusion is that the only failure is to stop trying.
@soulsings
I love that, mind if I adopt that for myself?😊
@WorkingitThrough2 anything I share here you are free to try and see if it works for you.
@soulsings
Thanks, Soul❤️
I have and I think all have these feelings when we truly experience things out of our control as sickness, other people lost death or break up, betray or face difficulties what is hard to solve with our resources.
i try to change focus and remind myself again how strong I am because even facing difficulties I don’t give up, look for opportunities and way to solve it and grow as person, mother any role I have that time. I remind myself to stop compare myself to others and keep growing.
@shiningCloud47 I think never quitting is a great strength to have.
- Have you ever had the feeling “I should be able to manage this, I’m not strong enough” when something happens in your life?
Yes, usually when I overthink and create "What if..." situations. It really holds me back from ever overcoming certain challenges in my life.
- What helps you to keep moving forward when the going gets tough?
Focusing on the present and not worry about the past or future.
@OakSerenity the problem with what ifs is the mind cannot tell the difference between real life problems and imagined ones so essentially I am creating problems where there are none and getting myself all stressed out. When I stop that I calm down.
I feel like I’m still in the healing process of it because I’ve been doing it for many years. But I’m grateful that I’ve found a 12-step program and joining mindfulness meetings to help me improve and do better.
@OakSerenity glad to hear you feel you are healing and have the support you are looking for.
I try very hard to manage this feelings looking after myself as the normal then I am more resilient that is the hope … always take breaks before they are needed … 💕💕💕💯💯💯💯

When things get tough I remind myself of all I've managed in the past and that usually (not always) I will manage if I put my mind into things and stay grounded.
@amiablePeace77 I agree that we are stronger than we think and have overcome adversity in the past.
@soulsings. There were a few times when I wasn’t strong enough to handle things on my own. I was able to get professional help to help me make it. It good to know that help is available if I need it.
