133. Releasing the fear of failure


Listen Later

What is failure? Things didn’t go the way you expected when you were putting in an effort to make them go that way. I didn't get what I wanted when I was actually trying to.

If we weren’t trying, we can chalk it up to that's how life goes sometimes. But if we were putting in an effort, it hurts more because we blame ourselves.

There's a part inside ALL of us that is in a relentless loving pursuit of answering the questions: "How much better can I feel? How much more could I like my life?"

But our nervous system would rather keep us in a familiar hell than unfamiliar heaven.

So what do we do?

In this week's episode you'll learn:

  • The difference between instincts and intuition and how to honor each
  • The difference between clean pain and dirty pain
  • The 3 P's of dirty pain: personalization, pervasiveness, and permanence
  • How to shift out of personalization with self-distancing language
  • How to shift out of pervasiveness with perspective-distancing language
  • How to shift out of permanence with time-distancing language
  • How to indulge your worst-case scenario thinking until you bump up against your own sufficiency
  • How to move through others judging your failure
