"Are you paralyzed with fear? That's a good sign. Fear is good. Like self-doubt, fear is an indicator. Fear tells us what we have to do. Remember one rule of thumb: The more scared we are of a work or calling, the more sure we can be that we have to do it."
~ Steven Pressfield, 21st century writer from The War of Art
I love that.
Turn your fear around. Whatever it is you’re most afraid of, if you believe Pressfield, is exactly what you need to do.
Reminds me of Tony Robbins saying, “What you can’t do you must do; what you must do, you can do.”
What are you afraid of?
Good.
Time to “Just do it.”
(I’m nervous about it, too…but let’s go for it! :))

Fear of particular situations dissolved when I finally confronted them. The “doing it” comes before the fear goes away.
