Success For Life 2003: Fear of Success
A Program for Women
Friday, August 22, 2003
9am - 3pm
Check-in: 8:30am
Did you know that the number one reason people don’t succeed is FEAR?
Whether this is a fear of success or fear of failure, most people haven’t
taken the time to identify this for themselves. You might be afraid to know
what your passions are, Why? Because once you know, you are confronted with
the responsibility to take action to follow your passion. We can allow
ourselves to remain passive as long as we “don’t know” what we want to do in
our lives. Another type of fear occurs after you know what your passion is.
This is the fear associated with taking a specific action toward fulfilling
your passion. For example, you may need to go back to school and you are
afraid of this.
‘Fear of Success’ is a difficult concept to understand. Most people ask why
would anyone be fearful of success? The answer lies in their fear of being
overrun with the success, losing friends because of it, overworking or
becoming a workaholic, having too much responsibility, among other fears
associated with being successful.
‘Fear of Failure’ is much more familiar to people. This involves the fear
that we will not know what to do, we won’t do it right, we will make a
mistake or we won’t be capable. This then leads to a loss of confidence
which will lead to loss of motivation. Finally, other fears include the fear
of the unknown, or that we won’t be able to handle the stress.
Connie Murray LCSW is a local psychotherapist and Professional Life Coach.
Murray has dedicated her practice to helping people find balance in their
lives, overcome obstacles in their life and move forward with their hopes,
dreams and goals. Murray explains that a Life Coach is someone who combines
positive thinking and motivational exercises with systematic goal-reaching
strategies. The benefits to her clients include
-
more rewarding goals in
their life based on their life’s passions,
-
more meaningful
accomplishments in a faster context,
-
more meaningful
relationships,
-
and the much needed balance
that we realize is so important once we reach middle age.
According to Murray most
people express a desire to reach a happier more fulfilling life, but are
simply too busy to sit down and plan it out.
Connie Murray is co-owner of Family Counseling Associates and Coaching For
Your Success. She is currently presenting a seminar entitled Success For
Life 2003. Murray tells us that the program has evolved out of years of
working with females and helping them overcome the obstacles in their lives.
Murray states that women are so busy helping others reach their goals, they
often don’t have the time to think about their own. They are also so busy
coping and know that goals imply a commitment to action which makes them
resistant to setting goals. “The problem is” says Murray “is that once women
actually sit down and focus on what goals they do want to reach they find
that they actually have more time in the day and approach their days with a
new enthusiasm and motivation.”
The Success For Life 2003 Seminar is a full day seminar being held at the
Conservancy Center at Blowing Rocks Preserve. Murray tells us that women are
provided the strategies to find more balance in their lives while striving
toward their goals in a both informative and motivational context. Each
participant will receive a workbook to take home with them. The facility is
a beautiful facility providing an atmosphere conducive to a day of renewal
of self and networking with other women striving for success in their lives.
Catering services are provided by Feastmasters Catering providing a
delightful and high quality service for the day including breakfast and
lunch for the participants. Teresa Hoffman, owner of Feastmasters states
“this is a day of inspiration and rejuvenation. I personally have made some
significant changes in my life as a result of attending this seminar”. Sara
Fattori, owner of Fattori Interior Design explained “this seminar helped me
to jump start my goals in finding more balance in my life and I plan to
attend again simply to remain on track in life”. Murray tells us that to
watch the women make a transformation in their lives is very rewarding and
“what coaching is all about”.
