Your fear of failure is just worrying about a mental state in the future. You are not your mind, you are not your body. The atoms in your body get cycled every few months iirc, so that’s not you.

No one is born with the mentality and wiring to achieve the things they want in life, I promise you. You will face adversity and you learn to change to overcome.

When you fear suffering, you take half steps. You only want to do what is safe. In life, anything can happen 😃
