Fear - The Success behind Failure

I see many people never trying anything in fear of failure. Even in the cases of silly situations like avoiding climbing a ladder in fear of falling, etc. Life is never predictable. If it is, then it is so boring.

It is common for any normal human being to make mistakes and learn from them. I have studied the success behind many successful persons. And I found one thing common in all of them, and that is overcoming fear of failure and giving their best attempt to what they thought would be successful.

I have even studied the success behind many persons who think themselves as ever-failures. I wondered how they could manage to live a vulnerable life in such depression. The common theme behind them was fear of failure. They have tried some works for two or three trials; when all of them failed they managed to create an impression in themselves that they are born failures and never attempted to do anything.

This fear is called Atychiphobia, and can be easily overcome by some motivation and lots of self-help.
