Tapping for Success

I was trying to accomplish something today but feeling really blocked, so I searched the word “success” under Tapping with Brad Yates on YouTube and found this super helpful video:
Stop Stopping Yourself - Fear of Success

I feel liberated after watching this. So good. Did not realize that pattern of stopping things all these years came from a fear of success. I sort of knew it but could not put my finger on it, and could not figure out how to break free of this unseen limitation. In just a few minutes Brad broke it down and cleared it up for me.

I can see clearly now what has been standing in my way - me. I had a misunderstanding from someplace in my past when I did something great, and I was cut down, judged, criticized and therefore decided it was bad to be free and be myself and be good at things. But I couldn’t keep the lid on my greatness, so I kept doing great things, but kept a lid on them by negative self talk, or by not following through on promoting them, or by assuming others would hate what I do.

Such a long journey of negative thinking about my own productivity in the world! And yet, I am an amazingly talented creative being, I have so much to give and share and express and do. I have been feeling awful because I couldn’t get it out of me, the creative energy was getting squished inside and held back by my own thinking.

Two opposing forces battling it out inside of me for so long, and now I see how to move forward. Stop stopping myself from creative acts, stop stopping myself from freedom of expression, stop stopping myself from sharing my thoughts with the world. And the fear of success fades away.

It’s not the point anyhow, I am successful, now I just want to be more successful and more effective in my work and presence. There is so much more to learn and do!

Thank you Brad, and the universe.
