How to Overcome Fear of Making Mistakes

Are you stressed or anxious through fear of making mistakes?

Do you feel under pressure to do everything 'perfectly'?

While it's great to do things 'right' and have others think you're good at what you do, being overly worried about mistakes actually makes you less effective.

This is because if you are self-conscious or anxious about what you are doing, this emotional arousal can cloud your thinking, and make it difficult to focus. It's a double bind - as if trying to get things right makes you more likely to get things wrong.

Is it wrong to try to avoid making mistakes?

But surely you should try to get things right? Well, yes, up to a point! It makes sense to figure out what you need to do and how to do it, and to set about your tasks as efficiently and competently as possible.

But if you (or others) expect or demand perfection at all times, you are stoking up trouble and setting yourself up for a fall. Because, no matter how good you are at what you do, mistakes of one kind or another will happen.

The pursuit of perfection is a prison

The answer is not to strive (or pretend) to be perfect. The answer is to adopt a different attitude to mistakes. What do mistakes mean? Do they mean that you're a useless human being, a total failure?

Or do they mean that the world is not fully controllable, and you can learn from what actually happens? If you can see mistakes as gateways to new knowledge rather than a sign of failure, you're going to achieve much more in life.

There are many reasons why people acquire the belief that they need to be perfect, and it can feel hard, and even scary, to let go of this idea. If you've always been told, and you believe, that mistakes mean you're a failure, how can you now turn round and declare that the people who told you this were wrong?

It's as if you have to become a different person. But won't it be great to be free?

And this is easier than you might think.
