Conquer fear with action
"Your fears are not walls, but hurdles. Courage is not the absence of fear, but the conquering of it."
-- Dan Millman
How do we conquer fear? With action. Millman says that action is the ONLY way to move through fear.
Fear aims to stop us in our tracks. When we step forward anyway, our anxiety eases. We begin to pay attention to what’s actually going on instead of being trapped in fearful speculation. When we’ve done it once, we can do it again. And again. And again.
"Many of our fears are tissue-paper-thin, and a single courageous step would carry us clear through them."
-- Brendan Francis
