Here are some motivational quotes to help you to overcome your fear of failure. Never doubt how God can use your talents to make a positive impact on the world and those around you.
Overcoming the fear of failure
Don’t be afraid to pursue your dreams, pursue that business opportunity, get the girl of your dreams, etc.. If fear was a man, he’d never take risks. You maybe afraid to do it, but I would be even more afraid not to do it. Imagine if Martin Luther King never took a stand. Imagine if Thomas Edison was afraid to try again. Imagine if Jeff Bezos was too fearful to start Amazon. Regret should be our greatest fear. Never doubt what you can accomplish in the world. Never doubt your ability to do something. Who cares what other people may think. Do what needs to be done!

Learn from your failures
When we fail that can sometimes create fear in our heart. This fear is the reason why some give up and are never willing to try something new or step out of their comfort zone. However, this should not be. Instead, let’s learn and grow from our failures. Let’s use our failures to make us better and wiser. Let’s use them to implement better strategies to pursue our goals. Also, remember that you only truly fail when you stop trying.
