What Holds Us Back

A Clue: It's Not Fear

“Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the assessment that something else is more important than fear.” - Franklin D. Roosevelt.

You will never regret working hard on things that matter to you, even if they feel scary. Courage is recognizing that oftentimes there are other things more important than fear.

The thing that keeps most people from fulfilling their potential is not fear. It's lacking the courage to try despite fear.

Remember: It's not fake it until you make it; it's practicing it until you become it.
