Overcoming Fear of Failure for Personal Growth
You know that gut punch you feel when you’re about to try something big? Like, you’ve got this idea burning in your head—maybe a blog post, a side hustle, or just speaking your mind—but then your brain goes, “Nah, you’re gonna fuck it up.” That’s fear of failure, and it’s a bastard.
