The way I overcome the feeling of fear of failure is to instill the mindset "Failed, try again, fall, get up again". So, failure is something that naturally happens in a trial process, so if you fail, you don't need to be too late in regret and sadness.
It is critical to overcome the fear of failure because that is what will make you establish a business and become successful.
You just have to believe in yourself and what you are doing because that is the only way you will have the confidence to face whatever challenges that comes to you in your business.
Not doing anything because of fear of failure is a negative mindset we should overcome. Have confidence in yourself and do not think that failure is the end of the world. I always tell myself that "you never try, you never know". And think of your mistakes made as an opportunity to learn.

Failure happens if one fails to plan. Planning must be done and studied severally if effective and potent to avoid dismal feelings of failure. It is better to seek advice from other businessmen on what to do or talk to the family. Gather the consensus on the family's decisions.

The fear of failure is a natural feeling that all human beings sometimes experience when new challenges arise or want to embark on a new project, I think we must know that failure is not the end or that we can not try again later, without failures there is no experience and without failures there is no future success, It's better to try than not to do it for fear of failure.
Failure serves as an awakening call to all humans young and old. It's not only in business but also in our day to day living. It's from the failure we strive more and become strong. It's a big challenge to survive and excel.
To overcome the fear of failure, you need to change how you think. Many people tend to see failure as the end hence they fear failure. Then there are others who see failure as simply a way for them to learn more and grow themselves.
