Fear of the Unknown

Day 22

Today I had an interesting conversation with a customer. Somehow we began talking about fear. How fear can control your life. It you can get over the fear of failure you will be able to achieve anything. If you continue to live with the fear of failure you will never experience anything new and therefore never be able to truly be happy.

In order to get over this fear of new experiences, you need to start small and work your way up.
- Make a list of things you have always wanted to do but have been too afraid to, whether it be as crazy as sky diving or as simple as riding a bike.
- Circle the "smaller" or easier tasks
- Pick one of them to do every month
- Once you run out of the "smaller" tasks move up to the bigger ones

The world is out there for you to experience and enjoy. Don't deny yourself this.
