I think you’ll find that what you are describing is more commonly called “laziness”

Thanks for stopping by, mate.

I never understood the fear of success. When we’re young, we’re taught we can be/do anything, for the sake of our self esteem I guess. We have such firm ideas in our minds of what we will become, for the most part. Somehow on the way there, we make compromises and before too long we’re not a princess or a firefighter or a trauma surgeon.

Perhaps it’s not the fear of success that drives us away from our goals. Perhaps it’s the fear of the work we have to put into achieving them and the compromises we need to make to allay those fears that drive us off course.

I think you’re right Steve – courage plays a very big part in success because it’s scary to put yourself out there, exposed and sometimes alone.

If you want to be success you have to put yourself out there and a lot of people are afraid of that exposure and potential success.

Great view point!
