Fear is appropriate when you’re in a dangerous situation and need a powerful response that snaps you into action. But this emotion most often manifests itself as a fear of failure or looking foolish. These have little to do with real danger. This more common type of fear makes you play small by seeking security over passion. It encourages meekness over expressiveness and convention over individuality. Most successful innovators, philosophers and artists have learned to disregard it. They know that repeated failure isn’t nearly as bad as not even trying…
That’s like losing before you begin.
Merci
