Fear

Fear is an extremely common emotion for everyone and is also a leading cause of people not attaining their goals. The University of Scranton put out a study reporting that 92% of people do not attain their New Year’s goals. Fear is an emotion that can often be overpowering and when applied to business decisions, can lead you to take the safe road and not pursue your actual dreams and passions. There are many different types of fear that can hold you back from starting your own business or pursuing a business venture. The most common fear is the fear of failure. Many people let the fear of a failed venture keep them from pursuing it in the first place. If you have an idea that you strongly feel can be successful, executing that idea is the first necessary step in creating a successful venture.
