prefer to analyse problems and are likely to ignore
generating new ideas (ideating) and resist engaging
creatively with problems. This approach works well in
familiar situations. However with unfamiliar situations
or problems that do not have apparent solutions can
morph into bigger challenges with this approach.
It is recommended that as you continue to develop your
analytical strengths, it is important that you make
intentional efforts to apply your ideating skills to take a
different perspective at the problem. This would help
you in identifying situations which need an analytical
approach and those that need an Ideating or Creative
approach
Overall you should consider spending more time in
understanding and comprehending the problem rather
than rush to analyse and solve it

The fear of failing can be immobilizing - it can cause us to do nothing
Fear and therefore resist moving forward. We all have different definitions
of failure simply because we all have different benchmarks, values
and belief systems. Fear of failure is when we allow fear to stop us
doing the things that can move us forward to acheive our goals. The
objective of this report is to give insights into the level of fear we have
of failure.
The speed with which we take decisions is directly linked to our fear
of failure. Our fear of failure also determines how much time we
spend and how much attention we give to each step of the decision
making process.
Fear of failure can prevent people from taking optimized decisions
even if they have a high achievement motive. Fear of failure arises
from a desire for success while either approaching challenges or
Self - Confidence while avoiding hurdles. And therefore has strong influence on the
quality of decisions we take.
