List three things to remember when trying to overcome a fear of failure (1 point for each; 3 points possible)
What will be an ideal response
List three things to remember when trying to overcome a fear of failure. One point each for any 3 of the following:
- Remember that not doing well doesn't mean the end of the world
- Remember that not doing well doesn't mean you can't ever try again
- Redefine what constitutes failure; from catastrophic to "a minor setback"
- Remember that not doing well at first is not failure; things take practice
- Remember that "to increase your chances at success, double your failure"
- Remember that to keep life from closing in, you need to periodically stretch; the longer you go without trying something new, the harder it becomes
- Remember that expanding your comfort zone will give you greater choices in the future
- Remember that trying to avoid failure doesn't make you safe, it only limits potential
- Remember that people who avoid failure (or have a narrow comfort zone) don't necessarily feel less fear
