EFT Tapping For Fear Of Failure

Fear of failure could block your success and keep you in failure-mode. This is because our thoughts do indeed become our reality. When we think of failure very intensely, then we have a big block in our path to success. So, how do we release this block?

I like using EFT tapping, because it is very versatile and robust. There are some very good ways to do EFT, but for the novice, these very simple suggestions should get you started.

1. Find something very specific you want to do that triggers this fear of failure. EFT works best when we are being specific. So instead of tapping for ?fear of failure?, we tap for a specific aspect and ideally, a specific event. A few examples from my experience are:

Quitting smokingLosing weightGetting promotedGetting a jobGoing for an auditionGetting a dateMaking more money

2. Now think of a near-future event involving this thing. For example from the above:

Fear of failure as you think of quitting smoking by this time next weekFear of failure as you think of asking your boss for a promotionFear of failure as you think of attending an audition tomorrow

3. Write down or make a mental note of the future event where you perceive/fear failure. Rate the fear of failure from 10-0 or Small Medium or Large, then tap as follows until 0 or a small number. Setup (on the Karate Chop or Sore Spot): "Even though I have this fear of failure, I love myself anyway."

Reminder (on the rest of the points): "This fear of failure"

If you are tapping for an ongoing situation, let's say job-hunting, you may need to do this tapping on a regular basis until the situation is finally resolved.

If you are new to EFT, do not worry. EFT is short for Emotional Freedom Techniques. It was developed from an earlier method called Thought Field Therapy. EFT has the advantage of being very easily learned and self-applied. It uses a combination of acupressure release plus clever wording that enables this release. I find EFT much more effective than hypnosis or hypnotherapy, as does any other hypnotist or hypnotherapist I know who regularly practises both methods. You can download a free guide or manual from many online resources and get started in less than an hour. Or you can dive right in and work with an experienced practitioner or attend a local workshop.
