The problem is that they have been conditioned for failure. A lot of people have a fear of success, but it does not mean that they are asking for attention. By continuuing to fail, they are successful at failure. It is a problem that is not easy to overcome and only through being pushed past their threshold will these people eventually come to realize that making mistakes is OK. Keep in mind that this fear is subconscious and people usually won't be able to identify it unless they take a really good look inside themselves and look into their past. Most are not ready to do this and it is a sensitive issue for them. If it is someone you know, be careful. Good luck.<br><b>References : </b><br> People are not failures because they do not want to be successful. The problem is that they have been conditioned for failure.

They don't try to succeed because it is possible they have never had to stand on their own two feet and they don't know how gratifying it can be, and how little effort can go into that. Instead, they leech off of other's kindness and fill themselves up at the expense of others. The best thing to do with people like that is to tell them they are that way and that they need to pick themselves up and take care of themselves... only if they are truly only victims of their own poor self-esteem.<br><b>References : </b><br> They do it because they get rewarded for it.

With more knowledge comes more responsiblity. So they think if they pretend to be vicitims, they will be able to make the mistakes they want to make, and they'll think they're excused for their dumb mistake. I dont know, that's just how some people are.<br><b>References : </b><br> If they pretend to be victims, they know people will think they don’t know anything.

…so why not have everyone flocking around you wanting to help you and make it all better? there are many that thrive on that type of attention…
