The 1 Critical Step to Eliminating Your Fear of Success

In a recent article on Success Coaching I noted that one of the unconscious fears that programs you for self sabotaging behaviours is the fear of success. Now I know that that may sound strange to some of you. For instance you’ll say, how can one desire success and also at the same time fear it?

Well the simple answer is that desire and fear are not sourced from the same emotional place within you and hence can co-exist in the same way that you could have one foot on the gas and the other foot on the brake at the same time. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could get your foot off the brake i.e. release the fear of success once and for all?

Well absolutely!

So how does one do that? Follow me and you’ll have made the first significant step in freeing yourself of this negative self sabotaging programming. My question to you is: What is the benefit to you of having the fear of success living inside of you?

Initially you’ll say absolutely nothing. So I’ll ask it in another way: What lessons has the fear of success supposedly taught you? Now you might say, well it’s taught me not to take success for granted, to work hard and stay focused so that,

I can keep my eye on the final goal so that,

I can achieve my goals , so that,

I can therefore succeed, so that,

I can feel successful, accomplished, happy, contented, joyful, a sense of relief, greater inner peace and fulfillment.

So in summary we have that: The fear of success causes you to feel successful, accomplished, happy, contented, joyful, a sense of relief, greater inner peace and fulfillment.

I call this the Summary Statement.

Now lets look at what it feels like to have the fear of success living right inside you. So here for a moment allow yourself to connect with that fear and notice what it is doing to you. You’ll likely notice some or all of the following: self doubt, confusion, indecisiveness, anxiety, dread, pessimistic or negative thoughts about the potential outcomes of your efforts, a loss of enthusiasm or motivation for your goals, de-energized, and so on.

So what is all of this doing to your potential for success? Well it’s killing it isn’t it? Hence what is it doing to you and your life? Well it’s killing you too!

So is this fear of success toxic to you? Absolutely!

Is the experience of the fear the same as the conclusion from the Summary Statement above?

They are opposites, correct? So which is the truth about this fear? Clearly not the Summary Statement which you will recognize as false.

So do you want this false statement living inside you?

Do you want the toxic fear of success living inside you?

If you’d like to clear them both then simply, as if speaking from your heart ask that they both be purged from your mind, body and life now.

Finally contemplate how you’d rather feel as you move towards your goals. Notice how this feels to you and if it feels good assert that this is how you’d rather feel and see yourself.

I’m sure you are feeling now some or all of the following: lighter, more confident, a greater sense of clarity and focus, peace of mind, calmer, more energized or enthusiastic, more optimistic and so on. You have now taken a major leap forward towards your success employing a process called the Mind Resonance Process® (MRP). If you’d like to build on this kindly contact me at the email address below.
