Just immediately after secondary school, many years ago, I had this positive energy inside me pushing me to do things. Back then, I had that mindset that I could do anything I set out to do and things were working for me according to my plans. Fast-forward to some few years later, as an undergraduate in the university, I still had that mindset but it was toned down a bit. The fear of the unknown slowly crept in and embraced me. After school, just before my Youth Service,I was motivated to push that fear aside and venture into a business. I took a step and started.
To cut the long story short, I failed in that business. I couldn't even get back my capital. I felt terrible. From then till now, I've been unable to try something else not because of anything else but fear. What if start something else and it fails again, how do I recover from that? If each time I fail and money is wasted, how do I get back my confidence?

This whole failing thing just scares me to my bones. I need to overcome this fear and be daring young girl I was a few years back. I need to do better.
