The 3-F’s Equation
Failure with the absence of fear can lead us
to a sense of freedom. From such freedom
comes the ability to be…
- more creative
- more innovative
- more courageous
- and even more adventurous
Things to consider -
The 3-F’s Equation
Fear of failure is when we allow
fear to stop us from doing the
things that can move us forward
toward achieving our goals.
Fear of Failure Defined
The 3-F’s Equation
There is an actual condition around
this habit called Atychiphobia, and is
defined as the abnormal, unwarranted,
and persistent fear of failure.

involved in challenging projects.

Fear of Failure Symptoms
The 3-F’s Equation
Self-sabotage -
Procrastination, excessive anxiety or a
failure to follow through with goals.
Fear of Failure Symptoms
The 3-F’s Equation
Low self-esteem or self-confidence -
Using negative statements such as 

"I'll never be good enough to get that
promotion," or "I'm not smart enough to
get on that team.”
Fear of Failure Symptoms
The 3-F’s Equation
Perfectionism -
A willingness to try only those things that
you know you'll finish perfectly and
successfully.
The 3-F’s Equation
Overcoming Fear of Failure
The 3-F’s Equation
Analyze all potential outcomes -
Remove fear by considering all of the
potential outcomes of your decision.
Overcoming Fear of Failure
The 3-F’s Equation
Learn to think more positively -
Positive thinking is an incredibly powerful
way to build self-confidence and neutralize
self-sabotage.
Overcoming Fear of Failure
The 3-F’s Equation
Look at the worse-case scenario -
In some cases, the worst case scenario
may be disastrous, and it may be perfectly
rational to fear failure. In other cases,
however, this worst case may actually not
be that bad, and recognizing this can help.
Overcoming Fear of Failure
The 3-F’s Equation
Have a contingency plan -
If you're afraid of failing at something,
having a "Plan B" in place can help you feel
more confident about moving forward.
Overcoming Fear of Failure
The 3-F’s Equation
Have a “Bias to Action” -
Propensity to act or decide without
customary analysis or sufficient information
'just do it' and contemplate later.
Popularized by Tom Peters, author of 'Search For Excellence,' 

as a distinguishing feature of agile firms.
Overcoming Fear of Failure
The 3-F’s Equation
Traceability and Metrics - ???
This is certainly a hard thing to do and
there are no easy tools that can help.
However, as with all things, if we have data,
we can find ways to improve.
Measuring Fear of Failure
& Getting Better About It
Fear of Failure Conclusion
The 3-F’s Equation
The wonderful thing about failure is that it's
entirely up to us to decide how to look at it.
We can choose to see failure as "the end of the
world,". Or, we can look at failure as the
incredible learning experience that it often is.
Which will you decide when next 

facing the fear of failing?
Famous Quotes
The 3-F’s Equation
Failure isn’t a badge of shame, it’s a right of passage.
Tony Hsieh, CEO of Zappos
I haven’t failed, I have just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.
Thomas Edison
Failure is simply the opportunity to
begin again, this time more intelligently.
Henry Ford
Success is the ability to move from 

one failure to another with enthusiasm.
Plato
Business Solutions Consultancy
