I think I'm less afraid of failure than some others.

In taking stock of ourselves, we should not forget that fear plays a large part in the drama of failure. That is the first thing to be dropped. Fear is a mental deficiency susceptible of correction, if taken in hand before it gains an ascendency over us. Fear comes with the thought of failure.

It's your own fear of failure that stops you from doing things.

I honestly think I'm the kind of person that is driven by fear of failure rather than striving for success. I tend to go to bed scared and wake up terrified.

I'm not scared of anything in particular, but I am motivated by a fear of failure as opposed to a need to succeed.

Failure seldom stops you. What stops you is the fear of failure.

Successful people have a bigger fear of failure than people who've never done anything because if you haven't been successful, then you don't know how it feels to lose it all.

I'm most scared of failing, of disappointing people.

Failure isn't an option. I've erased the word 'fear' from my vocabulary, and I think when you erase fear, you can't fail.

I'm not afraid of failing. I don't like to fail. I hate to fail. But I'm not afraid of it.
