What Would You Do If You Had No Fear of Failing?

by | May 8, 2025 | Blog, Life Inspiration, Resilience | 0 comments

Take a minute and really think about that question.

What dream have you pushed aside because of fear? What idea, what business, what song, what book, what conversation… have you held back on because you were afraid of falling short?

I’ve learned something powerful over the years: Fear doesn’t mean stop, it means pay attention. And most of the time, that fear is just a sign that you care. That it matters.

Imagine waking up tomorrow and the weight of failure didn’t exist. Imagine making decisions not out of fear, but out of purpose. You’d try. You’d build. You’d speak. You’d love louder. You’d step into something that feels like freedom.

The truth is, you don’t need to wait for that kind of fearlessness. You just need one small act of courage. One step in the direction of that dream.

So today, ask yourself: What would I do if I had no fear of failing?

And then—do just one piece of it. You don’t have to get it perfect. You just have to get it going.

Random Act of Kindness: Send a text or call someone you know who’s been sitting on a dream. Let them know you believe in them. A few words of encouragement can be the spark that gets someone moving again.

Still learning the ropes of having no fear of failing? Read my book, Crisis=Opportunity: Finding Growth and Resilience in Challenging Times, to expedite the process of turning fear into opportunities. Thank you!
