Fear of Success

Some people subconsciously fear success. Their fear paralyzes them, preventing them from taking any positive action. Successful people find ways to overcome this fear, and that's one of the reasons why they are successful.

There is a myth that if you become successful, you have to move to a different neighborhood and lose all of your friends, and the world as you know it will end. If you subscribe to this theory, you are deluding yourself. Success comes in many forms (marital, spiritual, physical, mental, financial, and so on), and it is wonderful. Success is continually rewarding, and all people should know what it's like to be successful in their own right.

Sometimes people shun success because they think it will impose a higher standard on them and consequently put more pressure on them to perform consistently at a higher level. It's true that a higher standard is set. But who says you can't meet expectations once you've raised the bar? You should always expect excellence out of yourself. You deserve to perform at a high level, no matter what the context. If you merely continue to perform adequately, then you are just trying not to lose; but if you continue to perform with excellence, then you are in it to win! Avoid playing the "trying not to lose" game; always opt for the "play to win" game instead.
