Considering consequences isn't fearing, it's logical. Fear doesn't require reason or logic and can lead to impulsive behaviors which may or may not be damaging. Knee jerk reactions are fear based, and quite often more damaging than careful consideration.
That being said, I try not to let fear rule me, but we all have fears. I won't let the fear of being seen as careful lead me into stupidity, though.
