Transforming Fear
Perhaps you have heard that if you fear something “Feel the fear and do it anyway.” That advice can be helpful to a point, but it has one very significant drawback: The fear is still there. So if you have a fear of cold calling, or a fear of failure, or a fear of success, or a fear of rejection, or – even more likely — some combination of all of these fears, summoning your personal power and acting in spite these fears is a brave thing to do, but as exhausting as running uphill with bricks in your pocket.

Breaking Through The Comfort Zone Barrier
Your comfort zone barriers—the fear of looking foolish, the fear of criticism, the fear of being successful and the fear of failure—are quite simply attitudes.
The two things that kill marketing creativity
The first is fear. The fear that you'll have to implement whatever you dream up. The fear that you will fail. The fear that you will do something stupid and be ridiculed by your peers for decades.

When Fear Holds You Back
Dear Jane, I’m re-taking a short seminar and then starting my own business. But something is holding me back. I know it's fear, but so what! Good for you for recognizing that it’s fear and for not making excuses, which means you are ready to say “boo” back to fear. Here are a few suggestions you’ll find in my book, Enough is Enough!, in the chapter “Break the Spell of Fear: Make Fear Your Ally”:

Fear: Taming the enemy within
Every day I speak to managers, executives and sales personnel about what holds them back from achieving the success they want and earning the incomes they desire. Every day I hear the same thing: Fear. Fear of getting a no, fear of failure, fear of success, fear of rejection and the list goes on. But fear has a structure and when you know the structure, you can make it disappear.

Successful People Face Their Fears and Act
Fear is the enemy of self confidence. Self confident people face their fears and act. Procrastination is the manifestation of fear. When you find yourself procrastinating, figure out what scares you about the situation. Is it fear of failure? Is it fear of success? Is it fear of rejection? Is it fear of being embarrassed? Is it fear of the unknown? Once you've figured out why you are afraid, do three things; admit your fear to yourself, embrace your fear, and take action. Action is the antidote to fear. In most cases, you'll choose wisely and your fears won't be realized. In the cases when you choose poorly, you'll find that failure isn't as catastrophic as you imagined. Successful people learn from their failures.

Fear and Relationships: Two More Tips for Value Based Networking
Very often, fear is what keeps us from maximizing our contacts with other people. Human beings are full of fears: fear of rejection, fear of failure, fear of looking ignorant or stupid, fear of hearing the word “no.” What you should really be afraid of is missing an opportunity because you didn’t make the contact.

Success and Fear
What you fear has no power until you give it yours. When we fear something we are handing our personal power over to that which we fear. When we’re afraid of circumstances, situations or loss, we’re really giving our power away to the circumstance, situation or the loss. So, whether we’re facing health issues, the bank manager, a hungry tiger or an uncertain tomorrow, we only become powerless when we surrender our power.

Major Change
We have no better example of how, in times of crisis, people pull together than in our own backyard. Look at the impact the storms and Cyclone Yarsi has had on Queensland. One of the biggest challenges facing any group of people is how to cope with a huge upheaval or change in their lives. In the face of fear and insecurity people come together and work as a team to get through. It is so uplifting to see the unselfishness of others who have left their immediate problems behind to offer help to those less fortunate. This same spirit should be used when facing major change at work.
Failure creates success! Part I
Fear of making a decision – because I might make the wrong one. Fear of failure – how will I look? Fear of taking the chance – I could mess up. Fear of risk – I could get fired.
