What are you afraid of? Tough question, I know. Let’s start by hearing what I’m afraid of:
Bugs.
Rodents.
Scary movies.
Sleeping home alone.
My dreams. Especially ones that are realistic.
Public speaking.
Talking to people I don’t know very well on the telephone.
What other people think of me.
Failure.
Concussions.
People thinking I’m not tough.
People thinking I’m not cool.
People thinking I’m not smart.

Fear is a response that’s intended to save our life. To protect human kind. A signal that allows us to take action, survive.
Today, fear continues to protect us. However, if you aren’t faced with a life or death situation, fear can cripple us, make us stale, make us static. Those who see fear as opportunity, will continue to get stronger, better, more well-rounded, and less fearful.
Ask yourself, what are you afraid of? Write it down and go do it.
What won’t kill you, will only make you stronger.
