Don't hold back

Article Abstract:

Self assessment serves as an initial step in eliminating fear of success. Assessing one's self enables individuals to be aware not only of their strengths, but also of their weaknesses that need to be modified. Confronting one's fear also helps in eliminating fear of success. Swimmers who are afraid of going to the distance can overcome such fear by practicing on time and by establishing a commitment to finish every set.
