We have read in our childhood failure is the stepping stone to success. We have also heard about people who have tasted failure first and then went on to become famous as well as visionaries. Inspite of that if we dont want something to happen to us that is failure. We do not want to fail. Inorder to ensure we dont fail we always try to use the standard template the society has set without understanding for every individual the template for success varies. What a person likes may not be liked by other. Just like the finger prints of two individuals are different their passion, outlook in life, masure of success views on marriage and parenthood also differ. But alas our society does not approve of these differences as we like to believe there are no differences. Since I have done something you also have to do the same thing. If we see someone not following the template immediately they are branded outcast. Neither the family nor the neighbourhood supports them and they are called eccentric. This oscartination by society is what makes many individuals fear taking the path of what they truly believe. Though their heart says this is the path that needs to be taken they are not sure whether they will succeed. The question that lingers in many minds is will I be successful. What if I fail. Wont the society mock at me.
Yes this fear holds a person back. They decide to take the safe route defined by society. But by taking that they never achieve their true potential and will always remain average. We need to understand that people who have become legends have failed in their life. But the failure didnt stop them, they learned from it and bounced back. So before we comment oh this is not possible for me. Look inside. Why it is not possible. Is it because your fear failure. If Yes address that fear and overcome it. Because once you overcome the fear of failure no one can stop you from achieving what you want to achieve.
