Is fear of failure stopping you?
Have you failed before you have even begun your home business – simply because you are afraid you won’t succeed? Relax, you’re no different than almost every other entrepreneur. We’ve all felt overwhelmed or afraid at one point or another.
Fear is probably the main thing that actually holds people back from starting their home business or pursuing any number of dreams that they have for their life. Starting a home business takes guts. You may have to try several different ventures before you find one that you succeed at and that is a good fit for you.
Moms face some unique circumstances that probably contribute quite a bit to our trepidation. We fear the impact a failure might have on our families and finances. If you don’t have the support of your spouse and family behind you, fear can be an even larger obstacle.
Listen, you aren’t alone. There is a large network of women who have inspiring stories of overcoming obstacles and succeeding. Seek out companions and colleagues that you can gain encouragement from, bounce ideas off of, and celebrate large and small victories with.
