I recently published an article on Thrive Global where I share about six podcast shows that will help you overcome your fear of failure. I wanted to tell you about this post here, and if you like what you see, you may like to read the rest.

Anyways… this is how the post begins

“My mother instilled in me that failure was not something to be afraid of, that it was not the opposite of success. It was a steppingstone to success. So I had no fear of failure. Perseverance is everything. I don’t give up. Everybody has failures, but successful people keep on going … She was my life mentor.”

This is what Arianna Huffington said during an interview for Success Magazine.

An inspiring and admirable approach, although one the vast majority of people are NOT given as a child.

You may be one of the masses brought up to fear failure. It’s not to say your parents and teachers meant to, of course. They tried to protect us. They did their best to protect you and teach you.

But as Arianna says, failure isn’t something you should fear (not if you wish to grow). After all, it’s failure that teaches us the harshest yet important lessons of all in life.
