If you want help overcoming your fear of failure let me tell you a little something that helped me, as strange as it sounds.

You WILL fail. At some things, at some time, for some reason. It is inevitable that failure should occur now and again, for everyone. You are no worse off by failing, only by letting it stop you from trying again and from learning.

Go forth and fail with joy. Fail loudly and spectacularly. Fail in your own unique way. Build a foundation of failure on which you can mount your shining successes. :)

the cool thing is a lot of these things can be done on the same trip etc., that'll help.

My advice? Dye your hair before you get a career job, a lot of jobs won't let you dye your hair (for no good reason I might add), so make sure you dye it while you have a job you could take or leave :)

Take the month long road trip and hit Disneyworld. The best way to go wild there is to to just stash some cash, book it three or four months out, fill a van with your friends and just go for it. We did that and it was one of the best experiences of our life.

The best thing to do when planning a Disney trip is to just call up whatever number of theirs is free from where you are, and just talk out an imaginary trip with one of their wonderful phone people (honestly, the best call center I've ever dealt with)

Let them know it's all theoretical at that point, They'll give you a ballpark price and see if you and your crew can swing it. You can also get all their random free planning junk like DVD's and such. I'm sure being from Aus the plane ticket will be the hitch, but once you get ot Disney, it isn't all that bad.
