In my case the fear of failure is fear of killing a dream. F.eks. I have this dream of creating one or more website(s) that would allow me to travel the world and work from anywhere. I think the reason I haven't yet started on the sites (although I'm costantly scribbling down new ideas for websites) is fear of trying and failing and thus no longer being able to daydream about globetrotting.
