Fear of Failure
Although I have high expectations for myself or certain goals and plans. I will always have some voices in the back of my head saying there's always a chance I won't succeed, or my plans can go wrong.
The scariest part about failure is that it is a very easy path to go down. It can be as easy as having really bad habits or even bad friends who don't push you to be the best version of yourself but instead one that is lost. It will never be too late to succeed of course no matter what age you are you can turn your life around, but I was put on this pressure by family and social media to try and succeed at a very young age. On social media one might see young people achieving all these amazing things that gets me to question if I'm stepping into the wrong direction.
Now with my parents, they moved from Mexico to America at a very young age to find better opportunities in life like many do. They have always done everything for me and my siblings to live better than they have. One day I want to be able to do something for them that shows how grateful we are for them, but I don't want to disappoint them in any way. When I try to meet my families' expectations it causes a lot of stress because I don't know if I'm doing enough.
Even if my family is one of my reasons for success, I also want to do it for myself. Although, I have had some failures before I hope to keep moving past them and looking for positive ways to move forward.
Do you fear failure?
