Fear of success?

I don't even know if I think it's real, but having read a bit about this sort of thing has really made me think. I am intelligent but I don't do well in school. I am decent looking, caring, and genuine, but I don't do well with relationships. I am not afraid of hard work, but I get distracted very easily when I know that I can't accomplish a goal in a relatively short time and then lose sight of it and let it die out. This all seems to perpetuate itself because the next endeavor I attempt, I start out uming I am going to face these exact obstacles. And the ultimate result is complete paralysis in terms of attempting anything. I suppose the hardest part is the thought that even if I try to address this, I'll encounter the anxiety and doubt, and then what? ust wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone else? I hate being like this. I started counseling recently, but I wondered if there's anything I can do to forget this phobia, whatever it is, and get on w/ my life?
