FEAR OF FAILURE

Sometimes, I just think I should overcome some of my fears. I do have a lot, like everyone, let's be honest. I'm scared of snakes, spiders, etc. Basics. But one of my biggest fears, the one that kind of stops me from doing lots of things is the fear of failure. I'm one of those people that would be scared if they don't succeed something, and it could be the most absurd thing; I could cry because I don't understand my homeworks, and I did once. Because I was afraid. 

I have to admit, I never really failed any exam until today. By exams, I mean finals, which could stop me from doing my second year in university. I think that's what lead me to write this post. For the first time ever, I feel sad and scared because I failed, and that I now have to believe in myself. Some people told me I'll be able to make it, some just think I'm too dumb to succeed. But what should I believe? Believe them, or believe in myself?

I decided that from now, I'll believe in myself. I'll believe that I can succeed, and try to accept that if I fail, I can do something else. If you're like me, and you fear failure, and you don't know how to overcome it, just believe in yourself first, because that fear comes from a lack of self-confidence. If you have any fear, whatever it's similar or not to mine, then you can comment it, because the bravest thing you can do is admit what you're scared of.

All the love,
