Fear and Ability

ByMatthew

Grown-ups, unlike children, equate being afraid to do something with not being able to do it. – Steve Chandler

What a wonderful distinction!

What if the only thing that was really holding you back was not knowing how to do something? Not knowing what to do?

What if all you needed to do was ask someone you know who has done the thing you want to do for a little help?

Or read a book, or part of a book?

Or watch a YouTube video?

Or take a class or attend a seminar?

And then you’d know what to do?

Then you could just do it.
