What stops most people is not failure but success. Once they get a result that doesn't match up with their self image they sabotage themselves back to the beginning.

Sabotaging their success lowers others’ expectations of them in a less catastrophic way and decreases their stress that they’ll be too happy and then get so disappointed they can’t go on. They’d rather be comfortably miserable than crash extra hard and die.

It’s all about damage control in advance for a crash they know is coming. Sabotage is their self protection.
