Overcoming the Fear of Failure


Giovanni Dienstmann is an International Author, Meditation Teacher, Coach, and Speaker. He is the creator of the world's most popular meditation blog on the planet - Live and Dare. Giovanni is also the author of the bestseller, Practical Meditation: A Simple Step-by-Step Guide. The book is available in seven different languages and has popularly been called "The Meditation Bible." Giovanni's work focuses on taking you from anxious and stressed to calm, centered, and focused, through the power of meditation. Thousands of people have taken Giovanni's programs and experienced the benefits. 


In this episode, Giovanni shares that the first step to overcoming the fear of failure is self-awareness. He takes us through the seven emotions and two of the eight mindsets that are behind your fear. Giovanni also provides two things you can do when we experience fear "in the moment."  Here are the seven emotions covered during the show:



  1. Vulnerability

  2. Unworthiness and Disappointment

  3. Shame and Embarrassment

  4. Guilt and Regret

  5. The Imposter Syndrome

  6. Loss

  7. Uncertainty


The two mindsets covered were: Perfectionism and Attachment to a Sense of Security. There are more than eight mindsets. You can learn more by going to the Live and Dare blog site. There, you'll also find out about the lifestyle program, The Limitless Life. That sounds amazing.

Here are some quotes I captured from my conversation with Giovanni:


"You don't actually fear failure, you fear how you will feel if you fail." 


"It's not so much about the success or the failure, it's about the path."


"The pain of failure goes very quickly, but the pain of regret for all those dreams that you didn't pursue, that eats your soul very slowly for the rest of your life."


"Yes, when you dare to desire something, when you dare to have a goal, yes, you're setting yourself up for disappointment, and yes you're creating expectations where you'll likely be frustrated, but you're up for a great journey and you're up for a lot of growth."


"Let fear be the background noise of your success."


"Instead of looking at the cost of taking action, look at the cost of not taking action"
