Fear of Criticism
Is the fear of criticism holding you back? Are you dancing the 'dance of denial' and procrastinating because you're afraid that your work might be judged too harshly by the critics?
Well just remember - your work will probably never succeed in pleasing everyone; it's not meant to. But it could be life changing for others.
As someone wise once said "I cannot show you the road to success but I can show you the road to failure and that is trying to please everyone."
So, please don't die with your music inside you just because you were too concerned about criticism. So, go sing your song, publish your book, write that blog, hit the 'live' button on FB, put your silly videos on YouTube. Share your gifts with the world :) That is why you are here!
This post of mine was inspired by the following words from Seth Godin's amazing book - Tribes.
