If I could see my way clear of endless shadows
if I could silence these echoes of yesterday
if I could embrace up and coming challenges
and summon strength that is never too near
if I could, I’d imagine the riches I’d find
Fear, a fine emotion
Fear, a friend
and if I fail, Fear will remind me
I’m not flawless

I love this. I recently watched a TedTalk about defining fear. The idea was that it’s almost more important to define your fears than it is to define your goals… Once you know what you are afraid of and have mapped out all possible outcomes, you have nothing to fear but not trying. So, embrace the fear. See where it takes you
I really like that idea. Often times, it takes us to better places. Thank you!
Agreed!
