The fear of failure is the most common creative killer

The fear of failure is the most common creative killer

The reason why this happens is that you are afraid to put yourself out there. You’re afraid someone will criticize your work, or worse, mock it. And that makes sense — who wants to endure that?

I certainly don’t. But here’s what I do want: I want to live a life full of joy and fulfillment by doing what I’m called to do.

Creative people are constantly told to be more creative, but they never get taught how.

Here are three fears that will destroy your creativity if you don’t deal with them immediately.

Fear Of Criticism

Fear Of Criticism

Criticism is something that all of us have to deal with on a regular basis.

But, if you’re struggling with things like writer’s block, self-doubt, or lack of motivation, fear of criticism might be the reason why.

Creative people are some of the most sensitive folks around — which makes sense because their brains are constantly sending them creative ideas and new ways to approach challenges.

It can be difficult for some creatives to push past all the criticism they receive while creating new work. But without pushing through our fears, we will never get anywhere in life.

Fear Of Trying Something New

Fear Of Trying Something New

People are afraid of trying something new. They are uncomfortable with uncertainty and don’t want to put themselves out there.

It’s important to realize that you will not know if something is going to work unless you try it first.

You can’t predict the future, so why not give yourself a chance at success by giving it a shot? It’s okay if something doesn’t work out right away — as long as you tried your best, no one can take that away from you.

Not trying anything new at all will lead to the same result… failure! So why not try something new today?

Fear Of Imperfection

Fear Of Imperfection

Many people today are crippled by a fear of imperfection. They don’t put themselves out there, because they’re afraid to look foolish or make mistakes.

But if you want to succeed in both work and life, you have to overcome those fears.

People fear imperfection because they think it will lead to failure. Imperfection is actually a requirement for success. When people don’t try to do something perfectly, they end up producing better results.
