I'm just getting started learning marketing and copywriting and I suffer from a strong fear of failure and I'm very intimidated by the business. I'm intimidated because as I study the great marketers and copywriter it is overwhelming to see how good they are and how much knowledge they have. I fear that I don't have what it takes to get to their level. It all seems so complicated and I am very aware of how many skills and how much knowledge I lack. My fear of failure stems from the fact that I see marketing and copywriting as my last chance to make something of myself. If I fail here I believe I will be relegated to $10-an-hour jobs for the rest of my life. I won't go into the details why this is the case, but trust me, it's a valid assessment.
How have you dealt with the fear of failure and being intimidated?

I feel this fear pretty intensely daily. My strategy for dealing with it thus far is to work harder and longer. I know that I can't control my emotions but I can control my actions. So perhaps my fear has a benefit. I would like to have more confidence however.
Thoughts?
