FEARLESS is getting back up and fighting for what you want over and over again....even though every time you've tried before you've lost.
Interpretation
Fearlessness is about persistence and resilience in pursuing your goals despite repeated failures.
This quote by Taylor Swift emphasizes the importance of resilience and determination when faced with challenges and setbacks. It highlights the idea that true fearlessness is not the absence of fear or failure, but the courage to rise again each time you fall and to continue striving for what you desire, regardless of past losses.

The next time you encounter fear, consider yourself lucky. This is where the courage comes in. Usually we think that brave people have no fear. The truth is that they are intimate with fear. When I was first married, my husband said I was one of the bravest people he knew. When I asked him why, he said because I was a complete coward but went ahead and did things anyhow.
You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.... The danger lies in refusing to face the fear, in not daring to come to grips with it. If you fail anywhere along the line it will take away your confidence. You must make yourself succeed every time. You must do the thing you think you cannot do.

Sometimes I would come back from a run, and my artificial leg would have a puddle of blood from my stump. I wouldn't go to sick bay. In that year, if I had gone to sick bay, they would have written me up. I didn't go to sick bay. I'd go somewhere and hide and soak my leg in a bucket of hot water with salt in it--an old remedy. Then I'd get up the next morning and run.
