Success & failure are two sides of the same coin. But it takes a lifetime for people to even get anywhere near understanding this. Your mind is wired in such a manner that you want only success and you want to avoid failure.

All of this comes from pre-historic times because failure during those times usually ended in termination of one's life. Even today, when you think of what you want to do, you may think of getting success in the initial stages but eventually you start thinking only about all the ways you could possibly fail. This makes you either very fearful or makes you feel unprepared at all times, leading you to prepare more and more for outcomes that haven't yet occurred. However, like all actions, this one also has consequences

Every moment spent in thinking about failure and what you don’t want is a moment spent not thinking about success and what you really want. These thoughts plague you - there is a mini-hellstorm taking place in that brain of yours! You end up wasting precious time in all the things that are not needed, and you miss out on doing the things that are actually needed. When you focus only on what all could go wrong - your journey just comes to a standstill, it never takes off.
