I have an intense fear of failure or success, leading to inaction on my part. I can't even pick up the phone. I mean I can, but I am just so afraid. What happens is, I can feel the rejection or uncertainty of my desire and then I don't go for it. If I was really sure of something, I am not afraid to go after it at all. But once I am not sure, or if I have a gut feeling of rejection, I just get pararlyzed by fear. But then after I don't go for it, I realize no action is even worse, so than I go into a vicious circle of no action and over thinking. How can I stop this behaviour? I need serious help! Please send me your advice! I really need human contact.
