Fear of my Ability

Fri Aug 28, 2009, 10:59 AM
  • Mood: Fear
  • Listening to: 10 Years
  • Reading: How To Be Like Walt
  • Watching: The IT Crowd
  • Playing: Fat Princess (PS3)
  • Eating: Pizza
  • Drinking: Cold Water
I have this fear of failure. I feel like i can't get past the stage of "the idea". I feel if i move on with my idea it will crash and burn, therefore i never complete anything. I also place doubt on my ability to create. I keep telling myself im not good enough at drawing specific things, which makes me sit and only think how great my ideas would be if they ever had the power to control my hands to let them bleed out on to paper. I keep telling myself that i don't care what it looks like i just want to get the ideas out but the perfectionist side prevents me from doing that.

My worst enemy is procrastination and to much free time. They feed off each other so well and prevent me from doing anything constructive. I need to dig deep down and find the courage and the strength to fight my mind and its fears. I just don't know what steps i could take to do that. Ive tried to make a list of goals and ive tried to stick with them but in the end i fail to keep it up and i end up where i was before. Does anyone have any thoughts or tips on how to control your mind and fear? Im open for any suggestions...

Thanks.

-Josh
