Are You Procrastinating Because You Are Afraid of Success? – 121
In Episode 121, which is a solo episode, I continue our discussion around procrastination while adding ‘Fear of Success’ into the mix. I ask the question: “Are you procrastinating because you are afraid of success?”
It’s hard to imagine that we might be fearful of the thing that we are pursuing. There are some unconscious mindset matters at play that may sabotage our efforts through procrastination because we are actually afraid of the success that we so badly want.
In today’s episode I cover 4 ways that your mindset and your unconscious beliefs may actually be contributing to you procrastinating because you are afraid of success.
