Jaimz Jenard S. Florague 12- STEM Einstein\ Philosophy I want to take this moment to confront a fear that has loomed large over my life, my fear of failure. This fear often shows as an overwhelming sense of fear, when I am face with new challenges or maybe opportunities. I find my self second guessing my decisions and my abilities, made me believe that I won't achieve the standards I set for my self or others that expect of me. It has limited my willingness to take risks, when starting a personal project, or even expressing my ideas in social situation. I often hold back from participating fully in discussions, fearing that my contribution would not be enough. this self imposed restraint not only interfere my growth but also affects my personal relationship. As I shy away from challenges, and I miss out on experiences that could lead me to growth and fulfillment. To begin overcoming this fear, it is necessary to develop a plan that allow me to face it directly. The fist plan I have is connecting with my love, friends, family that will help me share my experiences and gain perspective. Because talking about my fear can help me reduce their power over me. Secondly, I will remind my self that everyone fail not only me, and it is part of the leaning process and life. I also plan to treat my self with kindness during those moment instead of it turning to self criticism. By facing my fear of failure and applying these steps or plan, I am opening my self up to personal growth and new possibilities. I also recognize that confronting fear directly will not only help me overcome but it will also encourage adaptability. As I reflect to overcoming my fear, I want to leave a message for my future self: Remember that, it is okay to stumble, or to feel uncertain, and to step outside your comfort zone. Accept every experience as a chance to learn and also to grow. And the potential that lies beyond this fear is endless, it is where the most profound transformations take place. So I also want to say that keep moving forward with courage and curiosity, for greatness that awaits you on the other side of fear.
