Anxiety and fear can bring you to a complete halt and destroy your creative power.?You paralyze your progress. Opportunities are fewer.?Fear serves to flee, it is natural, and since we have existed, it has allowed us to survive and react in the face of danger.?We are afraid to lose. Afraid to try, afraid to expose ourselves. The reasons are sometimes challenging to explain. And that is what we spend our lives in, being scared. So what can we do to overcome fear?
I think fear must not be defeated but embraced. Sometimes it is pertinent to propose to be afraid of fear itself. And that only happens when you act without overthinking. When you face it without wanting to overcome it, you face it as if it were a mountain. You get so close that you have to keep walking to cross it.?
"Only one thing makes a dream impossible: the fear of failure."Paulo Coelho. ?
So, let's fail to make a fail failure. Let's make mistakes and stumble until we run out of errors. Let's go from fall to fall and become more and more successful in falling and learning.?It would be interesting to try.?
Already reading this, you are less afraid. You smile and think of all those dreams that you do not let fail. That is the beginning of success. We say a lot that our potential is infinite. It is true. No one will come to help us, but if we don't work that potential, we will never reveal it.?Creativity is a muscle that you develop.
Let's scare the very fear. Let's act as we breathe.?The world we live in is becoming more and more unfair and chaotic. Opportunities seem to be smaller. We feel overwhelmed, alone.?We invent reasons to explain our failures. We forget that we can change the reality around us simply by acting.?
I often tell the story of a friend who lost everything in an accident. His car was totaled, and he had no insurance. A journalist asked him how he had managed to stay alive without a scratch. To which my friend replied: "It was my late father's car, and He loved it so much that I think my dad did everything to protect me." The next day the accident made a headline: "Pablo's Miracle." My friend Pablo then wiped away his tears. He retrieved the scrap metal from the car. He extracted five thousand tiny pieces of scrap metal. Encapsulated in small clear glass bottles with a label, "this little piece of metal belongs to a miracle."?For two years, Pablo lived from the sale of his little relics.

And fear itself was afraid. And failure itself, failed.?
Thus, every day, our failures accompany us like pieces of Pablo's car, ignored treasures of our potential.?
Entrepreneurship is not only some economic activity. Entrepreneurship means much more than that. Entrepreneurship is -Taking charge of things, feeling wholly responsible for acting, without excuses. It works in all areas of life.?
"Nothing in life is to be feared, only understood. Now is the time to understand more, to fear less." Marie Curie
After overcoming your most fundamental fears, you throw yourself into creating and aligning yourself entirely with your dreams. Something extraordinary happens in your relationship to reality.?Your purpose is a biological function. It's like breathing. Don't be afraid to live. That's creating. That's the secret. Breathe!
