    Relentless advance or something along that line is what comes to mind without knowing much in specific.

    "In 2019 I am going to fail fearlessly" (i.e. face failure with a smile)

    The closest in meaning to what you want out of all the "fearless" synonyms is probably "I am going to fail courageously" or boldly.

    - "Valiantly" is mainly used for going into situations which are doomed to fail and doing the best you can.
    - "Undaunted" is mainly used for not letting repeated setbacks stop you.
    - "Daring" and "audacious" is mainly used for trying something new and unheard of.
    - "Fearless" is not feeling fear.
    - "Reckless" is doing things without considering the things which should frighten you.
    - "Courageous" or "bold" (or brave) is used when the outcome is likely to be unfavourable, but still going ahead anyway. Facing your fears and overcoming them. "Boldly" has the additional connotation of doing things in a showy or flashy way.
