At some point in our lives, we all procrastinate or avoid doing the things we need to do to reach our goals. We may experience low motivation, or an inability to focus on our goals.
One explanation that psychologists have found for this is "Fear of Success".
Fear of Success is essentially a fear of the changes that will happen to our relationships, careers, emotions, physical appearance, health, and self-image when we succeed.

I do think that fear of success is a good explanation for people inability to achieve goals, because they feel that if they miss up around people that they won't have a change to fix the mistake that they done. This is why i think that most people don't get to where they want to be in life because there scared to try thing out because of what people might say. nutting is every right the first time you do it, it just means to you have to get back up and try again and not to give up on yourself so easy.
ReplyDeleteIt's just like me when i was young i had always dreamed about becoming a business manager and every one would tell me that it's hard and you need to go to school and not mess up. I always felt like gaving up, but i told myself that i have to prove all these people wrong and that what I'm doing.
