Yin and Yang Mini LAB Act NOW!
In today’s mentoring conversation we pick up from where we left off last week. We talk about how much pressure is released when we discuss our feelings. Rick even learned a few new things about himself during our conversation! I am sooooo happy about that.Nurturing and parenting dogs have been fulfilling for Rick and his wife, Deb. Agility training gives their dogs needed attention and is fun. They travel to events and go through obstacle courses together.
You will learn about the “Butterfly Effect” and how his grandmother changed the trajectory of his career. His path led to learning the Action Selling process from Duane Sparks who founded The Sales Board, Inc. in 1990. Rick believes in the Action Selling Sales Training process because it creates long-term sales success for clients. We want to share with you what works!

5 Buying Decision Sequence with Rick Macias, Episode 123 The Sales Board Action Selling
Resources
Fear of Failure (also called “atychiphobia”) “is when we allow fear to stop us from doing the things that can move us forward to achieve our goals. Fear of failure can be linked to many causes. For instance, having critical or unsupportive parents is a cause for some people.” Psychology Today: Fear of Failure
Fear of Success: “People who have experienced trauma may associate the excitement of success with the same physiological reactions as trauma. They avoid subjecting themselves to excitement-inducing circumstances, which causes them to be almost phobic about success. There is another layer to the fear of success. Many of us have been conditioned to believe that the road to success involves risks such as “getting one’s hopes up” – which threatens to lead to disappointment. And many of us-especially if we’ve been subject to verbal abuse-have been told we were losers our whole lives, in one way or another. We have internalized that feedback and feel that we don’t deserve success. Even those of us who were not abused or otherwise traumatized often associate success with uncomfortable things such as competition and its evil twin, envy.
In order to have a healthy relationship with success (and its flip side, failure, or disappointment), the first step is to learn to differentiate between feelings of excitement and a “trauma reaction.” Psychology Today: Fear of Success
