About this training
Do you feel like you have to do everything perfect? And are you always preoccupied with things that could go wrong? Or what others think? Or would you rather bury your head deep down in the ground, because you dread that particular assessment? Of course everyone sometimes thinks: shit, I won’t be able to do it. That’s healthy and keeps you sharp. But if that thought triggers a fear that is too intense so it blocks you, then you suffer from fear of failure. It is a common problem among students and employees and prevents you from performing optimally and causes excessive feelings of stress.
In this training you will learn to deal with fear of failure. You may not completely get rid of your fear of failure, and you don’t have to, but you will learn how to let it hinder you as little as possible. You will do this on the basis of four training courses, which you will actually use in your study, work or leisure time. Only this way will you notice that your complaints can indeed decrease.
