Equipping Christian Men for Richer Relationships

A New Program for Dealing with Failure

One of the guys made this life changing statement.

“I have started to implement a new strategy. I’m starting to press into my old feelings. In the past I would run from those ugly, haunting feelings. Not any more!”

Wow!

His old program was to feel fear. Run away. Escape into a fantasy. And, stay until he found some relief. His new strategy is this. “I must create a new program to confront my deepest, core fear.”

New Program:

  1. Get triggered by failure.
  2. Feel the pain in the pit of his stomach.
  3. Verbalize this old haunting thought.
  4. “I am feeling not good enough.”
  5. Next take three, slow, cleansing breathes .
  6. Pray for wisdom.
  7. Say out loud. “I have this old, ugly, worthless feeling on me but I don’t die.”
  8. Visualize Father, Son and Holy Spirit saying, “We want you. We love you. You are of great worth to us!”
  9. Stay there till fear loses its grip.
  10. And, you can return to some rest.

Homework

Develop a new strategy for next time you get triggered into failure and unwantedness.

Amen.
