Fear of failure.

This is one fear that almost all of us have. The fear that we might fail in what we are doing. The fear to not live up to expectations. The fear of letting others down.

I myself tackled this fear for a long long time. But then I realized that to live to my true potential, I’ll need to dump this fear of failure and try new things. I believe this had helped me in a big way to be constantly pushing myself and to take up new challenges.

This also helps me constantly grow as a person. I see people around me, all having great ambitions, few are willing to take the plunge. Why? Because they fear failure.

No doubt, the chances of failure are high. But the good thing about failure is that it always teaches you something. The more you fail, the more lessons you get to learn. Not taking the chance is failure by default, that too with no lesson whatsoever.

You are downplaying yourself by playing it safe. Take chances, realize your potential. You are made for more, much more than you have at this moment.
