2012 predictions and fear of failure
Wednesday, January 13th, 2010Has it ever occurred to anyone that maybe, just maybe, the Mayans got tired of chiseling messages into rocks. It does take a long time and would be very hard work. Maybe like our yearly calendars ending on December 31 they just had to pick a time to stop. Now my guess is as good as anyone elses because no one was there in the meeting where the Mayan people decided to stop with their future calendar efforts.
Maybe they got so busy fighting they didn’t have time to carve rocks. Maybe they knew their civilization was doomed and stopped wasting time on the future and started paying more attention to the present. Maybe they abandoned their cities for reasons according to their own prophesies. When the cities were abandoned almost all carving stopped. It’s logical to expect the carving of calendars stopped at the same time.
Perhaps with the way things were going for the Maya they simply didn’t have the time nor inclination to continue carving calendars of the future. Having the time to carve rocks was a luxury way back then.
Anyway, Dec 21, 2012, the end of the Mayan calendar and the end of the 2012 prophecy and predictions is when the dark rift in the Milky Way, Earth and the sun are all aligned. This ushers in a new age on the Mayan calendar.
For myself, I have a huge fear of failure but I am good at facing that fear and overcoming it. I don’t let my fear of failure cause me to procrastinate or get me off track. I use the fear to make sure I’m doing my absolute best at all times because I know if I don’t do my best I will fail. That scares me. I’m not afraid of trying at all, just failing.
I started a business when I was married to my first wife. The business became successful and we were getting ready to make some huge money when my wife started acting weird. She wanted us to stay small because she was comfortable there. She feared what success might bring and did every little thing she could to make sure we didn’t grow any bigger.
I’m sure you can see the problem. I have a fear of failure and she had an even bigger fear of success. Finally I couldn’t stand anymore of her irrational fear and we got a divorce. She’d rather be divorced and alone rather than successful and well off.
