Many have defined success as good or bad.  Success is good if you get what you want.  Yet, not getting what you want is failure.  Instead of looking at the steps you have taken as success; the focus and energy is all towards what you didn't get which manifests failure.  This assumed failure now causes a reaction--the fear of success. 

Reinvent yourself.  If fear of success is keeping you from what you want, begin to practice owning the steps you have made, allowing you to move forward.  Goals are similar to resolutions.  Resolutions can be broken until you change them.  Change exists depending on how you feel about yourself. 

The steps you take to reinvent yourself are successes.  Accessing your life you can change your belief in failure.  It is time to explore aspects of what is going on within you.  As you begin to identify the reactions you have you can take action to do something different--to have what you want. 

The focus is on the success of the steps you have accomplished.  To do something different is to reinvent who you think you are.  Only you can decide.

Reality:
      Write down the belief systems you routinely hold and easily respond to.
       Look at the repetitive actions that produce the same result.
       Beside each result that doesn't work for you, list what you would choose to do
       differently.
            
Although you cannot control external events in your life, you can choose how you want to handle them. Your action to your reaction is within your control.  You are responsible on how you respond.

You may not want to uncloak what triggers your reaction because that does take time.  Making a choice to practice something differently is the first step of your success once you begin to see the belief systems you have about success.

Deep feelings and Surface feelings:
            Work from the inside out.
             Identify your emotions and feelings.
            Reconnect to the emotions and feelings.
           What isn't working in your life now?
 
Our emotions are powerful tools, but unfortunately, it's easy to grow numb to them. The process is called repression involving feelings you don't want to look at any more.  Practice is imperative for change.  The energy is clearly on failure if you focus on what you didn’t do.  The reaction manifests a misunderstanding of what you are feeling.  You give up your power as you surrender to fear and are not comfortable with who you are.
 
Clearly know how you are feeling to act differently towards a response.  When your energy is focused on all the successful steps you have made you can be in integrity with the choice you make.   Do not looking at the fear as being a result.  This intention will manifest more on an expectation.  However, it isn't going to be enough.

• Visualize the best of who you are.

          You may be feeling good and bad about the choices you have made, chart out who are.
          Go through your chart and note which is the best you.
 
For example, if you feel the external you is more important, you may want to practice looking at what your best assets are. What growth have you made and what skills have you attained? Practice will support you in reinventing yourself.  Another example is if your social life is exciting and overwhelming, you may want to feel balanced and enriched. Remember the focus is not always on what you don't have or what you are not doing.
 

• Identify your internal dialog you have about you.

          List what stops you. (You will see how it relates with the internal dialog).
          Stop looking at blame and justification.  These are obstacles.
          Beside each obstacle, identify if this is a belief or perspective.
 
And now, the hard part.  Try something else.  Look within to stop the fear that is speaking for you.  In this Practice you can see how obstacles can be difficult and sometimes even painful to identify.  If you practice something differently you can change your behavior.

• Fake it 'til you make it.  This is through practice.

           Put into practice to overcome obstacles
           Write the practice out and do this daily.
 
The final practice is to  focus on the practices you have done; these are the successes you accomplished.   is to act as if you've already overcome them and are living as your best you (unclear). If your deep-seated fear was that you'd always be struggling, tell yourself you are deserving of financial abundance and stability. If you think love will always escape you, declare that you're a love magnet. This is where daily affirmations in the mirror or a journal will help. Of course that doesn't mean you can forego active steps towards your goals in favor of telling yourself you're doing the work, But while you do the work, you must be encouraging to yourself if you hope to make it stick.
 
So, now that you know where you want to go and while you're "being the change you want to see" and "faking it til you make it," it's time to put those good things about yourself (your resilience, your sense of humor, whatever it is you've listed as part of step two) to work in your transformation!
