Failing is not a choice you can have or avoid. Some people like you, may feel drowned with the amount of 'fail' you experienced half of the time trying to live your life. Meanwhile, struggling from the amount of negativity, some people around are waiting for you to fail so what you should do is SUFFOCATE them. I mean, don't strangle their necks you will be sued for that! Instead, prove them you will overcome the hardships and be successful like everyone else. 
In that way, the best suffocation they will feel is a lifetime of envy waiting others to fail and not working on their life as it should be.
