Although fear is very common, the truth is that a lot of us think about fear in the wrong way. We often see it as a valid reason to stop in our tracks. We say things like, "I'm scared, so I can't do this."

But here’s the thing - fear is often just a sign that our minds aren’t being managed. In other words, it’s the primitive part of our brain that’s taken over, not the higher, executive functioning part.

That's why it’s important to understand that fear doesn’t need to be a stop sign; it can be more like a blinking light saying, "Hey, pay attention to me!"

Thankfully, even though fear can make us freeze or avoid taking action, it doesn’t have to be that way.

It’s okay to feel afraid, but we can choose to move forward anyway. Whether it’s a job application, a new business venture, or any other challenge, we have the strength to overcome our fears and achieve our goals.
