 %ANTICIPATE HIGH SUCCESS FAILURE PLEASURE JOY PAIN 980608                                                                     
                                                                                                                               
     Our fears of success may be rooted in a reluctance to                                                            
pass   beyond  the  pleasurable  "high"   of  anticipating                                                                     
success.    The closer to success we approach the  greater                                                                     
our fears of passing beyond success may become.                                                            
                                                                                                                               
     If we covet the "high" of approaching success ---  we                                                                     
may try  to extend the "high" by delaying success,  and so                                                                     
undermine true success.   Such undermining of true success                        
may  be  indistinguishable  from fearing  the  passage  of                                                                     
success --- and so we may undermine success.                                                    
                                                                                                                               
     Success makes us vulnerable --- for there is then the                                                                     
risk  of  falling from the "high" reached.    There may be                                                                     
fears of  the  come-down  which is likely  to  follow high                   
success.  To avoid the inevitable come-down, the fall,  we                   
may avoid the "high" of success.
