I am afraid to pursue my dream to become a coach because it may not work-out for me.

Before I started pursuing my dreams to become a coach, there was a period when I got worried What if it did not work out?

I also thought. 

·        Why should I switch over from a highly successful career to an altogether new field?

·        Whether my failure in coaching would appear as if my entire career as a failure?

·        What if people remember my latest failure and not the other achievements of my career?

Indeed, these thoughts have retarded my pace. I got caught into a serious dilemma. I knew it well that no one would bail me out from this, it’s me who needs to come out by myself.

I decided to put things more systematically. By properly planning and chalking out the strategy along with necessary actions, there was no reason that I would fail.

Even if I were to fail, I knew I haven’t traveled too far to the point of no return that I can’t come back to my own professional world where I belong. Once again, I would pursue my dream of becoming a coach and just do the exercise over and over until I succeed.

It didn’t take me long before I realized that my fear was out of place.

This was a big aha moment for me because from that I was able to pursue my dream without any fear or dilemma.

To be very honest, failure is over-glorified in today’s world.

People fail all the time, in everything- big or small, you meet with failures more easily than success. There’s no need to make a big hoo-ha about it. Failure is a natural process, it comes naturally, treats it in a natural way.

In fact, what’s more important is the actions you take when things don’t go your way.

How can you learn from your failures?

How can you turn your failures into success?

These are the questions you need to ask yourself as you pursue your dreams.

It’s important to embrace these beliefs instead:

·         “My dreams are mine for me to take it.”

·         “Whatever I can conceive, I can achieve.”
