Freedom Friday: Bursting Through “Fear of Success” - Simply Woman

Hey Beautiful,

I thought I was a crazy person when I first mentioned to my coach that I thought I feared success.  “Who fears success”, I thought?!  “Don’t I want success?!”

Failure, yes.  I feared that too.

What I realized as time went on and the more people I spoke to for business and coaching and who wants to make their passion their Paycheck was that this fear of success was a very common thing!

Today, I help people break through this fear and actually work with the blocks that are constantly creating these fears….

I mean, let’s be real.  You have a passion, you are human, you have desires, so you naturally have the ability to live your dreams, but if you’re not, something is blocking you.  We find these blocks, accept them and remove them….

You might actually not fear success.

For me, I feared being abandoned, not loved it I was successful.  Somewhere in my childhood I picked up the belief pattern that if I succeeded and did not need the support or could not complain to my family about my finances and lack of direction or passion, they would not love me.  I felt being “small” in life = love and support because they could take care of me and also raise me up to tell me I can do it and I’d feel better.

The interesting thing about beliefs and shadows and all things fear based is, do we know if they are true?  Did I really know that no one would like me if u was successful?!  No!  I just got caught in this made up story in my mind and I was separated from love for years.

I write these Freedom Friday posts to help you get freedom in all areas of your life, beautiful!  This includes your inner self, which is the most important space to create freedom first.

So knowing this story I was repeating unconsciously was not serving me or the people near me, I started working on myself and rewriting me story!

It’s important to remember when you go through your own journey of dissolving fears, that the fear, these stories they are NOT REAL!

Love, my light, your light, your truth, this is all real!

Here’s how you can break through your fears and make your passion your Paycheck!

Get your journal….

At the top of a fresh page, write:  what are my fears around building my business (or in life, my job, etc)
Draw a line down the centre of the page.

On the left side of the page write out all your fears!  Everything your fear voice is telling you. “If I succeed no one will understand me or love me”

Sit with these feelings and accept them.

Ask yourself, “do I have to live this way?” “Am I ready to let these go?”

On the right side of your page, write the opposite to each fear! “What if I can support the people I love with my income when I grow my business!”

And keep writing!   Write all that feels good and all your power!

The REAL breakthrough!!

How about you and I work together by holding each other accountable, love?!   You are not alone!

>> For SEVEN days, could you ONLY live from the right side of your list?

Live from your LIGHT?  No fear….

Are you up for that challenge?

This will change your mindset around your fears!  It did for me!

Once I did this, my world shifted, I was confident, my business grew to the most income I’ve ever made, I was flowing and in my true power….now it’s your turn!

#ihwLoveOverFear

Go write your list and trust you found this post today at the right moment!
Love you!
+ are you up for this challenge?
