When you hear this word, the sound or thought of it can raise the hair on the back of your neck. Its meaning is heavily dependent on the context in which it is associated. Fear of failure creates one dynamic, while fear of success creates a different set of dynamics.

Get comfortable with understanding your fears so you can navigate them to assist rather than distract.
