The road to success is paved with failure. It's hard to achieve much if you aren't willing to take calculated risks along the way and be willing to fail occasionally to get to success. You can't learn to play the guitar well if you aren't willing to play any wrong notes in the process. Calculated risk does not include playing the lottery and reasonably expecting to win. Be smart about risk but be willing to put yourself out there and know you will fail probably multiple times and maybe even fail spectacularly if you want to achieve something special and out of the ordinary. If you are in your comfort zone all or most of the time, you are unlikely to achieve or experience anything extraordinary. Ask yourself whether anything memorable happens while you are sitting in your real or metaphoric easy chair?
Face your very real fear of failure. No one can expect to be on a constantly upward climb. The economic downturn alone has proven this. Life's path has many ups and downs. Get up, dust yourself off, make the appropriate adjustments and keep going. The alternative, doing the same old thing in the same old way no matter what, is not a very rewarding choice, is it? Be willing to fail your way to success.
