I’m Not Afraid of Failure
Summary
- I feel a sense of judgment and worry because everyone is watching everything we do now.
- Testing new ideas feels hard because it’s done in public and everyone is watching.
- I know it's important to do things in public, to figure out what works and what doesn’t.
- Watch me succeed or watch me fail; that’s how you do business.
- If people see us trying new things, even better. It’s part of our journey.

How To Take Action
I would suggest implementing a few key strategies to handle the feeling of being judged and the fear of failing in front of others.
First, embrace transparency. When you try new ideas, share the process with your audience. Let them see the ups and downs. This helps to humanize your brand and builds trust. People appreciate honesty and will feel more connected to your journey.
Second, normalize failure. Remind yourself and your team that failing publicly is part of the process. You learn from each failure, and it shows your resilience. Celebrate the lessons learned from failures as much as the successes.
Next, start small with experiments. Instead of launching a massive new initiative, break it down into smaller tests. Test in small batches to see what works before scaling up. This reduces the risk and makes it easier to pivot if something doesn’t work.
Also, document your processes and results. Keep track of what you are trying and what outcomes you're getting. This gives you clear insights into what’s effective and allows you to adjust strategies quickly.
Finally, create a supportive community. Engage with your audience and followers. Share your experiences and encourage them to share theirs. This builds a network of support where everyone understands that trial and error is a natural path to success.
By embracing transparency, normalizing failure, starting small, documenting processes, and creating a supportive community, you can turn the fear of public judgment into a strength. This approach not only helps your business grow but also builds a loyal and understanding audience.
