Fear: Starts in Your Head, Grows Like a Muscle

Fear is a muscle. Just like confidence, or mindfulness, or kindness.

The more you rely on it, the more it relies on you.

An equal parts association or negotiation of sorts.

Although, you do have a say in this particular negotiation of reliance.

You are in charge of your thoughts, behaviors, and actions.

The only way to eliminate Fear’s monopolization of you is to monopolize your authority over IT. Understand that fear will present itself to you, but that you will present yourself right back.

Exercise the muscle of self control and you will shrink your fear of fear itself.
