Are you the kind of person that fears failure? Like you wanna do an exam and all you are thinking is that, "I'm scared, what if I fail this exam again?". That is one thought that can never find its way to my mind. Even if you've been trying and failing all this while, that doesn't mean you should fear failure. If you fear failure then you are far from success. A veteran American stand-up performer, Bill Cosby, once said: "In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear for failure"
Using the previous example, he simply meant: instead of thinking that, "I'm scared, what if I fail this exam again" think that, "I really wanna pass this exam and I believe I'm gonna pass it". Even the popular TV giant, Oprah Winfrey said, "You become what you believe". Instead of fearing failure, desire for success the more and believe in yourself. If President Barack Obama was fearing that he might lose the Presidential Election in 2008 as a Black candidate, he wouldn't have contested. But he desired for success, believed in himself and his capability and worked towards the outstanding success he is still enjoying till date. You are destined for outstanding greatness, just make sure while trying to achieve the greatness, you don't fear failure. YES, YOU CAN.
