6. Gratitude six: Fear

Today instead of deriding my fear, I will accept it and love it and be grateful for it. I will let it teach me. I am afraid of failing. I'm afraid of succeeding because I am afraid of being a failure. I want so badly to achieve my goals that I am almost paralyzed by the moments between efforts when nothing is happening. How can I exist in this limbo state when I have goals to achieve?

Instead of panicking, today I will look at my fears with kindness and say to them "Yes, you have been heard. And now I am going to get back to the business of working towards my goals."

Terror of being a failure doesn't have to be a bad thing.

So today, my fears, I am grateful and loving towards you because you are the vulnerable part of me that most needs this kindness, gentleness, and love. Thank you for reminding me that I want to succeed. Thank you for keeping me humble and vulnerable and sensitive.
