Moonlit Mind #10 - Failure Doesn't Stop Me.

I am not scared of failures. They cannot and do not have the power to stop me. What I am more scared of is what if I am successful.
I used to plan for workshop involving 30 people, and then have a growing business with 20 clients lined up and all. I was not scared of the plan failing, of no one turning in. Secretly I was more scared with what if 30 people turn in, or there is a line of clients waiting for me.
Would I be able to take that kind of a load? What if this actually happens? Not even today, I am ready for that kind of a success. My inner working and upbringing, maybe.
I have had at least half a dozen of failed businesses. BPO Recruitment Agency, Paediatric Services Franchise... I won't list them all here.
So I am not scared of failing. What I realized through my failures was one simple thing. I realised who I was being. What suits me and what I can be good at. Yes, these failures, almost were like Neti Neti for me. Not this, not that.
I now know I am good at one to one. Anytime, you put me across a table and list of things to be worked upon with someone, I am good at it.
I am also a good speaker and trainer. Only thing is the platform has to be someone else's. Not mine. I am very good and successful at that.
Thank God for so many failures that I know the real meaning of success and I know my blueprint for it. Not a borrowed one, but a learnt one.
