Fear of failure is a common and powerful experience that shapes decisions, goals and behaviour across life domains — from career and relationships to health and personal growth. At its core, this fear is not merely about the possibility of an undesired result; it often reflects deeper concerns about self-value, social rejection and the perceived permanence of setbacks. Understanding how fear of failure develops and how it shows up can help you respond in ways that protect motivation and resilience rather than undermine them.

Self-value is the quiet foundation beneath choices, relationships and daily habits we endeavor to have with self and others. It shapes how we treat ourselves, how we respond to setbacks, and what we accept from others. When self-value is intact, decisions align with your long-term well‑being rather than short-term approval…

You gotta make clear to yourself your priorities and goals while always knowing your value. Never devalue self if can’t get something done in the manner you wanted or timeframe you were trying to acheive it in. You are trying, that deserves accolades in of itself. Change isn't easy, but can truly be worth it.
