I actually take the exact opposite approach on life. One of my favorite entrepreneurial rhetorical questions is: "What would you do if you knew you could not fail?". Confidence in your own abilities forces you to try and break boundaries that you would otherwise fail to even start if you felt inadequate. I am proud to have a massive ego and I work daily on breaking down my fears and insecurities. The NUMBER ONE reason why entrepreneurs fail is because they give up. No one gives up if they think they're above average, exceptional, doing better than other startups. People GIVE UP because of fear, insecurities, feeling they are below average. Just look at all the hot shot entrepreneurs that we all admire, they're all grade-A d-bags (Steve Jobs, Mark Cuban, Larry Ellison, Donald Trump, etc.) and that's because they believed they were larger than life, they acted upon that belief, and they actualized it.
