Yesterday I sent out a tweet asking how one overcomes their fears. Fear is a crazy thing. I thought I originally had such a strong feeling toward handling fear, as my fear mantra has always been:
Fear isn’t a good enough reason not to do something.
In this instance, my perspective on fear was different. Fear manifests itself in all kinds of different forms - it can be unfamiliar territory, or out of your comfort zone. Yesterday I looked at fear in the form of a 70 pound dumbbell; unfamiliar and terrifying.
In the end it came down to one thing: belief in oneself.
So what do you do when something scares you? Conquer it.

How do you overcome something that scares you?
You never lose your fears. The courageous simply don’t listen to them. They do nothing but create your pretend limitations.

Fear is never a good enough reason not to do something. I belong there.
