Another thing that can be good is to find a project that appeals to you, but is a little above your ability level. If you work it out, over and over, eventually you’ll be pretty confident in your knowledge of the climbing, and you’ll also be extra motivated to send your project, which can work wonders for your psyche level.
THIS!!! The motivation an psyche level outweighs the fear it seems, at least for me.

She gives really great advice...I follow her blog. She is never condescending...just totally genuine. And she is beautiful and vegan (me too). Needless to say, I have a total girl crush on her.
