Fear can give us tunnel vision and we can get stuck on what isn’t working. When we acknowledge the fear – take a step back and really figure out what exactly we are afraid of, we can actually work through it and get to the other side, one step at a time.
The truth is that people who embrace their fears are ultimately happier, more capable, better developed and more equipped to handle life and whatever comes their way.
Episode Quotes:
“Always do what you are afraid to do.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Fear keeps us focused on the past or worried about the future. If we can acknowledge our fear, we can realize that right now we are okay. Right now, today, we are still alive, and our bodies are working marvellously. Our eyes can still see the beautiful sky. Our ears can still hear the voices of our loved ones.” – Thich Nhat Hanh
“One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of his great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he couldn’t do.” Henry Ford
