Why do people have a fear of success?

Mike -

I know what you mean. I was in Las Vegas at at conference staying at Circus Circus (I don't recommend it!). I kept hearing these screams outside my window and saw the 18 story bungie jump tower!

Well, I just had to try it and jumped - scared to eath the first time, but enjoyed the other five jumps (sixth one free:-)). What an adrenaline rush!

I did it because I was bored with the conference, but more than that, I needed to shake up my psyche - not to be macho, but to prove to myself that I could meet a new challenge and overcome a natural fear of onrushing pool surface from 18 stories ;-0

In my opinion, it's looking for and meeting new challenges in life that make life worth living. And it's not bungie jumping, dirt biking, sky diving or anything else - it's whatever brings out the adrenaline and adventure in us and makes us feel alive again.

So, I recommend stepping off the metaphorical 18 story tower in one's life and renewing one's sense of aliveness!

Take care, Bob
