Quote by Emanuel Steward
I went to a motivational training course once, a course of self-discovery, and I found out after a week that my fear - it was not a fear of not being accepted - was a very violent fear of failure.
Summary
This quote highlights the speaker's realization during a motivational training course. Initially, they believed their fear was a fear of rejection, but through self-discovery, they discovered it was actually a deep and intense fear of failure. This suggests that the individual's fear was not rooted in the opinions or acceptance of others but stemmed from their own anxieties surrounding personal failures and shortcomings.
