Fear of Being Wrong


in school, i would be very quiet because i feared
getting an answer wrong, or being humiliated in front
of class because i didnt answer a question correctly,
so id remain quiet and not say much in school

and i even see it within my daily interactions that i dont
speak much simply because i fear saying something wrong
or making a mistake in front of someone
and getting caught making the mistake
and being corrected by it and feeling
humiliated because of that

so thats something that i see has really affected me 
and my life...is that fear of being wrong, making mistakes
you know, having that perfectionist tendency within me,
wanting to always be perfect, look perfect, i mean, 
placing some serious high standards without actually
going through life learning from your mistakes, but i 
would remain quiet and not push myself to face my 
resistances, my hesitations to see what's beyond that fear---
