How to Be All-In On What You Want Without Fear of Failure

Podcast #404

Going all-in on your goals feels harder than it needs to be – all you need to do is learn how to have confidence as you take risks and lean into the “what if’s” of the unknown ahead. If you’ve ever found yourself self-sabotaging, stuck in excuses, or holding back over something, then this episode is for you. In it, you’ll learn how to go be all-in on what you want without fear of failure. Get the full show notes at www.trishblackwell.com/404

In this episode of The Confidence Podcast we’re talking about: 

• Why we hold back and why the “what if’s” cause us so much fear
• What holding back and resisting is keeping from us, and why we are frustrated but might not have realized that that’s where our anxiety is bubbling up from
• How to stop holding back and how to start going all-in again with confidence

WHY WE HOLD BACK AND WHY THE “WHAT IF’S” CAUSE US SO MUCH FEAR

Fear is just faith in the wrong what if. 

-Steven Furtik

What if’s go both ways: they can be positive or negative. 

When we think about what if, we typically camp out in the negative.

Where do you want to camp out?

Where do you want to set your tent?

Negative what if’s are:

-Grounded on the soil of fear

-Sensationalized in our minds

-Self-limiting

-Anxiety-evoking 

It’s no wonder we hold back. The message we receive from the negative what if’s are:

-I’m not good enough

-I will make a fool of myself

-I will be all alone

-I will be laughed at

-I will not be able to recover

-I will get hurt

-I will lose everything and everyone

 

WHAT HOLDING BACK IS KEEPIN US FROM

The deep sense of soul satisfaction

The pursuit of success as a pursuit of our full potential

The experience of joy and growth – freedom to explore life

The ability to make a difference in this world

The possibilities of invisible doors that you can’t yet see

The healing of unresolved pain or trauma

The flexibility of financial freedom 

The ideal relationships and connections we were made for

The networking connections that might change the course of our careers

The self-satisfaction of knowing that you’ve poured yourself fully out

The praise from God at the end of your life – well done, good and faithful servant

The peace that comes from knowing you’ve been an excellent steward of what you’ve been given

 

HOW TO STOP HOLDING BACK AND START GOING ALL-IN AGAIN

Speak to the positive what if’s – and know first and foremost what makes you secure.

Let’s start by setting your mind on having a firm foundation.

5 Things You Must Know to Stay Firm in a Positive What-If

1. Know who you are.

2. Know that you are loved.
