As creatives we need failure. Failure is how we learn the best possible way to do something, we can't just whip it up out of thin air. Failure is a necessary and natural part of life and the fact that you fear it could simply be seen as yet another way you've failed. You've failed to believe you have what it takes, you've failed to give yourself the courage to take risks and make mistakes so you can learn the better way. We need to start seeing failure as a good thing, the less we fear failure the more bold and bright our decisions will be. You're inevitably going to fail somewhere in your life, why get in your own way of positivity. The way our mind works is absolutely astounding - simply being positive can have a tremendous amount of impact on your behaviour, your successes and your health. |
