Overcoming the Fear of Success: A High-Performance Mindset

Wisdom Warriors is tomorrow, register NOW to catapult your results

Hey, everybody! Coach Carol here, basking in the beautiful, steamy summer. Today, I have a message for you about how our mindset can get us stuck in the fear of failure—or even the fear of success.


Before I dive into that, don’t forget TOMORROW is my FREEEEEE live monthly zoom call. It’s at lunchtime so there is zero reason to miss it. And tons of reasons to make it a priority!

Recently, I conducted a SUPER QUICK survey, and if you haven’t answered it yet, please do.

Your response helps me understand how to support YOU better. For example, one respondent mentioned a fear of success, specifically worrying about working too much and burning out. If this resonates with you, pay special attention.

I completely understand and relate. Balancing a successful, impactful business while taking care of yourself and your loved ones is challenging. The fear of success and the fear of failure are two sides of the same coin. The key is to cultivate a high-performance mindset.

High-Performance Mindset

High performance doesn’t mean constant hustle. It’s about creating a plan that includes ample self-care, tailored specifically for you. This is my focus in our upcoming Wisdom Warriors FREEEEE ZOOM session (tomorrow) and my next program starting in late September.

For context….let’s talk about a concept from Melinda Cohan’s upcoming book, The Professional Coach. There’s a whole section dedicated to creating without burnout!

  1. Saturate: Immerse yourself in your work with enthusiasm. Dive in and enjoy the process without fear.
  2. Percolate: Reflect on your saturation phase. Let your ideas and experiences simmer.
  3. Create: Build something from your percolated ideas—whether it’s a program, schedule, or marketing plan.
  4. Celebrate: Acknowledge your accomplishments. Reflect on what worked and what didn’t.
  5. Rejuvenate: Incorporate regular self-care. This isn’t an extra; it’s essential for sustained productivity.

Sounds simple, right? Yet, when we go to DO this, “life” gets in the way. Our habits get in the way. Our neurodiversity gets in the way. That’s why reading these awesome articles is….well…not enough.

Not to worry, though. Your free lunch has arrived and it’s tomorrow.

Come Monday (tomorrow) to Wisdom Warriors on zoom and bring your perfectionist friends! All are welcome.

Overcome the fear of success and achieve high performance. Join me on Monday, August 5th, at noon for Wisdom Warriors. It’s free and designed to fit into your lunch break. Let’s start transforming your mindset together. Bonus…ask me anything 🙂

YES! I am sooo in! 

No more burnout, no more fear of failure or success. I’ve got you.

See you there!
