"Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will"- Suzy Kassem
When fear surfaces we tend to begin looking outside of ourselves for answers. This creates anxiety and more fear because it tends to lead us down the rabbit hole of comparison.
Instead of looking for evidence of what is possible, our brain goes to all the reasons why we are not where we want to be and then it makes up stories about what we see others accomplishing and achieving despite us not having all of the facts.
