I fear failure A fear so strong it almost stops me in my tracks. "Don't write that test, you surely won't pass" Does that make sense? Well let's see. My high school average was 97.3 I don't slack off, I surely work hard. Then why is it that self doubt relentlessly bombards? Negative thought patterns have played in my mind So long my self confidence is difficult to find. It has built up walls, making me believe I can't succeed. But I am armed with my bulldozer, I want to be freed.

Frightening Failure
