DARE - overcome fear of failure
Whenever you want to achieve something, there is a chance that you will not achieve what you set out to achieve. You can see that as failure, and failure is painful. Fear of failure is what is keeping most things from getting done. A different mindset about doing, achieving and failing can help you get more productive on the things that really matter to you.
DARE!
Think of four fases in setting and achieving goals:
- Set your Desired result
- Plan and execute your Actions
- Determine your actual Result
- Evaluate and learn
Repeat the DARE process until you are satisfied with the result. The key is to embrace the fact that your desired result can be different than your actual result and it will be most of the time. This is not failure. Failure is when you don’t do anything. Your mindset should be: I know what I want, I’ll do what it takes to get there, and I’ll learn from every result, even (or especially) if it’s not what I wanted.
Now stop reading and DARE.
