is a very good question to ask yourself, it allows first to evaluate if your fears are paralyzing or on the contrary they are protecting you from a real danger, I believe that fears in life are a mechanism of the body to preserve individual integrity, now the problems come when these fears are not based on reality but on assumptions that lack information, either because a loved one told us with much affection and little information that "we are not good for something in his opinion", this simple statement could generate a fear of failure that then affects us in life.
