Answer:

No, we should not fear failure. Some good things that come out of failing are learning from what you did to make the mistake and not making that mistake again. Another good thing is that if you fail at something and someone goes to do the same thing after you they can learn from you so you are helping other people, potentially. If you fail at something then obviously it wasn't for you so it can give you an opportunity to try something different. A downside from failing though is your self-esteem. It can damage your self-esteem and how you look at yourself. There are good things and bad things about failing at something but we shouldn't fear failure because it helps make us who we are.

Hope this helps!!

if you never fail you will never learn. it is very important to fail, because you learn what to do right next time. For example, if you do a certain skill wrong in a sport, you know what you did wrong and how to fix it. however, there are some downsides to feeling. For an example if it was a very important day and you failed you might feel like you’re letting some people down. But as I said earlier you were learning from your mistakes and getting better
