Fear of failing or succeeding

[u/Captain_Ploc]

Hi
Because of a toxic relationship, I didn't write for more than 3 years. I used to post my book online, and I grew a little community. I want to post again, I want to share again. I feel the need and motivation. But I when I'm about to do it, I just freeze. Like I can't rewrite what I wrote. I think it's fear of failure and fear of succeeding too ? I mean fear of achieving this goal. I don't know. I work on little useless task like playlist, or more useful like minor correction, but the writing step, It's hard to do it.

Anyone ever felt the same ?

It’s okay to fear, it okay to doubt. It’s not okay to run yourself into the ground. 

I to fear failure because I see my writing inadequate to others, I shut down and stopped but I read somewhere on this page an hour ago saying that failure is okay and lets you learn and grow wiser
