Hang on tight sister. I'm spicy on this one. OX
RISE UP RISE UP
RISE UPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
Fear of failure as: doing the thing
AND
Fear of failure as: NOT DOING THE THING
We get so hung up on the OUTCOME
But not doing the thing is also an outcome
So which would you rather?
Too much too soon? Well if we want something we have to MOVE. So I am encouraging you to MOVE. Besides, it's just a small perspective shift.
One outcome is you try and no one responds. How many of you bold women asked someone out and were declined? Jobs, house offers, client prospects.
Why are we so HUNG UP on rejection (in business, in expanding who we are) when it actually happens a lot more often than we give it credit! Even the store being out of stock is an example of NO in our life.
So what’s the big flipping deal with expansion, with business offers, with simply being more of who you are and are meant to be?...............!!!!!
Can you instead, RISE UP above this 3D state of being and tap into “infinite supernatural support”?!!!!
What if it isn’t “fear of failure” but rather and in fact, it is…..PRAISEWORTHY SERVICE. A way to honour God, to respect your role at this time on earth, to connect with others who will in return serve you. Then it's not really about you is it?
It's about doing the right thing, not your thing.
BAMMMM.
Pause, close eyes, take 3 slow breaths. Like actually. Just stop for a sec and come back after 3 slow breaths (the comet is not crashing, you are safe to pause for 30 seconds, I promise!)
…….
I hope you paused. I relate if it was uncomfortable. I am proud of you either way.
Now, let’s consider the following:
Finally, brothers and sisters,
whatever is true,
whatever is noble,
whatever is right,
whatever is pure,
whatever is lovely,
whatever is admirable
if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.
(Phillipians 4:8)
Think about what is good and true.
THINK ABOUT WHATEVER IS GOOD AND TRUE
THINK ABOUT WHATEVER IS GOOD AND TRUE
THINK ABOUT WHATEVER IS GOOD AND TRUE
THINK ABOUT WHATEVER IS GOOD AND TRUE
Can you see how this has the power to lift you above yourself?
It’s not fear holding you back, it’s just hesitancy, like the person who forever dips their toe in the water and then never gets in.
Push beyond the toe, put the foot in. IT'S JUST WATER. Build your actions to MOVE you towards the water. You don’t have to cannonball - just yet - but eventually you probably will. Because you will have grown your capacity to focus on WHATEVER IS GOOD AND TRUE and not on yourself….!!
If you don't try, you fail.
The trying and getting crickets is not the failing.
The not “keep going” is….because the outcome is not up to you. But what is up to is to MOVE. Move towards something.
I will leave you with the parable of the drowning man. (Google it, there are many versions on the www). The gist - a storm brews in a small town and leads to flooding. The water rises and the preacher stands his ground, convicted that the Lord will save him. THREE different “rescues” come by and ask, beg, plead with the preacher to climb on and get away from the ever rising waters. The preacher stands firm “The Lord will save me” he says and believes. THREE RESCUES COME BY. But he doesn't get on any of them, standing by “The Lord will save me.”
So, he ends up drowning and when he meets God he asks “Why didn’t you save me?!”
What do you think God answers with?
Yup - leaving you with that. Write to me with your thoughts on the moral here. Doing so is an example of MOVING into expansion…. Which is what you say you want after all, right?
