I strongly recommend you start reading biography's, of people who have started huge companies from nothing.
I think you will be surprised at how much they failed before they succeeded, and how often their ideas were rejected by the people who 'knew better'.
Ken Olsen, founder of DEC
Edison
Franklin
George Eastman, founder of Kodak
and so many more than I can list here
try to get into the habit of going to the library once a week, to the biography section, and take one home. If parts of it are not interesting then skim through it till you hit the good stuff
your self confidence with be greatly improved.
