Why We Fear Success More Than We Fear Failure w/Neil Schwartz

We’re living in scary times, and a lot of agents are worried about what tomorrow holds. However, sometimes what keeps us from reaching our dreams isn’t extenuating circumstances. Sometimes the roadblock is our own mindset, and we’ve become too comfortable with the current situation we’re in. 

 

Whether we’re battling issues beyond our control or our own self-limiting beliefs, it’s important to remember that we have power over the way we respond. Sometimes what scares us the most is success, and it’s important for us to address that if we want to progress. How can we tap into that power and stop being paralyzed by fear? 

How can we shift our focus away from worry? 

 

In this episode, renowned real estate coach and owner of Century 21 Masters, Neil Schwartz shares how to stop letting fear throw us off our game. 

 

 

You’re stuck where you are because it’s okay with you, and that goes for any level. -Neil Schwartz

 

Three Things You’ll Learn In This Episode

 

How to stop beating ourselves up for not reaching goals
Not achieving our goals is disappointing, but it’s not the end of the world. Slow and steady wins the race, so as long as we keep doing the work we need to do, success will come. 

 

How the fear of success holds us back
We’ve all heard of the fear of failure, but often what really holds us back is the fear of achieving success and not being able to replicate it. We have to stop letting the fear of bruised egos get the better of us.

 

The issue with looking too far ahead
While it’s important to have goals for the future, thinking of every move we need to make to get there is an easy way to overwhelm ourselves. Take one step at a time and trust the process.
