Yep, maybe 10% of our fear is instinctual, keeps us safe and is healthy. The rest of it is learned, we learn to be fearful either by training or traumatic experience. Fortunately, we can rewrite the learned failure programing we all pick up... and move forward in a more empowered and happy way of living!

Who knew that failure is simply part of the success process? I was raised to believe failure was shameful...consequently I didn't try many things for fear of failing. That's no way to live!

Embracing failure in my business was a critical component to my success.

Not embracing failure personally was a critical component to failure in other areas of my life

food for thought
