Fear of failure is usually what stops us from pursuing our dreams, this doubting sound inside you saying: "What if you failed?, How would people view you after? What if you exerted a lot of effort with no return?" And a lot more questions that do nothing but stop you from trying.
We often think of failure as a final destination, as if there's nothing after, which stops us from even trying. We often choose the easy path that involves an insignificant possibility of failure over the other path that has the ability to change our lives forever.
Because we think of failure as a final destination, we never try our best, but haven't we ever failed before to say so? Of course we did, and it wasn't the end, we survived after and we're still alive, and to be completely honest if you've never failed before then it just means you never really tried.
Graham Weaver said:
"Failure is not fatal, failure is not final, you can handle failure"
Those three sentences can change your entire life if you're fully aware of them, and he's 100% right about it, failure was never the end of the path, it was never a final destination.
We all have had previous failure, and I can say confidently that there are only two types of people: people who fail and never learn, and other people who fail and learn.
For people who never learn, there isn't any hope for success. But, for people who fail and analyze the reasons of their failure, success is just a matter of time.

May you live a life of happiness and success.
