It makes me think of this quote:

"Fear kills more dreams than failure ever will."—Suzy Kassem

It shows how powerful the fear of failure is.

It also shows that many people don’t get as far as failure killing their dream. They stop at the fear of failure. They give up before they even start. They kill their idea without giving it a fighting chance.

Adding to this: a quote from the game Superliminal, one that resonated a lot with me and I figured was relevant enough to share.

"But, more often than not, the problem is not that the problems we face can't be solved. The problem is that we become so afraid of failure that we refuse to see our problems from a new perspective. And so we do the same thing again, and again, and again, and therein of course, we find exactly the failure we were looking for."
