Success is scary
We all want to be succesful, right? Well, it would seem like that, but in reality fear of success is a very common cause of procrastination or settling. The defining factor is the meaning that you give to success. You can see it as an obligation to stay successful or to be even more successful. You can think of it as putting you in better position than your peers and you’re afraid of not fitting in anymore. Or you worry about the way down from success.
All these thoughts about success give it something negative in your mind. Being successful is something to enjoy in the moment. If you don’t enjoy it, it’s not success. Think about all the good your success will bring you. If nothing else, success will give you a message to remember in hard times: “Yes, I can!!!”
