How do I get past the fear of failing at life?

Thank you for the question. Counselors at BetterHelp are able to assist you with making changes within your life.  You seem to wonder why your ambition levels have plummeted - you also expressed that you are comfortable with the status quo. So, if you wish to improve your professional life - this means that you desire change in your life.  Being able to explore your life - both professional and personal life for opportunities to identify what you would like to do with your life.

Ambition is exploring your promotion options. It appears that you may not be comfortable in your professional standing, so explore where you would like your career to go. This may be about having a salary increase in your current position. This would create a situation where you would be required to make significant changes. It may mean being able to ask for a promotion because you would like an increase in salary - which may require you taking on more responsibility.

Being able to explore your life with a clinical counselor may be helpful in looking at why you are so comfortable and accepting of where your life currently is and exploring the various issues of your desire to change professionally.  When you look at your life as a whole - you can choose where you wish to make changes, and receive motivation from a counselor to help you make those changes. If the change you would like to make is to just make more money - exploring how to ask for the promotion, how to explore other opportunities in the same field, or how to accept a job with higher expectations of performance. Remembering your dreams of personal and professional goals - you will be able to be guided into the motivation to make the changes in your life that you would like to.
