Your attitude is TRASH.

i think i will fail

If you think that, yes you will.
Maybe you are doing things way too hard for you?
Why not start small, simple stuff, easy to succeed in and build on that, increasing difficulty with each win?
What have you succeeded in so far?

Failing isn't really an issue, it's failing without learning something from it that is a problem. Plenty of successful people failed many times before succeeding, and there's probably loads of them on here.

I often feel the same way - I have a habit of "fast-forwarding" through scenarios and coming to the conclusion that an idea will fail for whatever combination of reasons, which then makes me not bother going along that route. It's great as a way of not wasting time on things doomed to failure, but sometimes I think it might be better to do something, anything, rather than just continually say to myself "there's no point doing that, because of x y or z."

Dear Saynow,
it is a hard frame of mind you are in. You make it hard for yourself. This attitude is only inside your mind. It is not reality. Ask yourself: is it really like this? At all times? Do I really fail at every, tiny, little thing I do? No, right? You managed to go out of bed, make your bed, tie your shoes, eat breakfast...and so on. This might seem small, but it is important to start small.
Not 'triple your income'. Not even 'twice the income'. Think about: what small, tiny, little step can I realistically take, to make my life a bit less miserable? Go outside for a walk? Then do so. See, you did not fail. You created something better. Even more powerful: do something for somebody else. Does your mum need help with her chores? Help her. Did you fail? No. Is she happier? Yes. See, you don't fail at everything.
Now, on to the next. Little, tiny, small, insignificant thing. But all palaces are built of tiny bricks, and lots of time.
Good luck, and have a good day full of bright moments.

Edit: typos.

I would focus on developing more confidence in life in general.

Get a job and be the best at it.

Get jacked at the gym.

Get a cool hobby.

Then build a business, because you couldn't build a sand castle at the beach with the mindset you are in at the moment
