Do the thing you fear most and the death of fear is certain.

Avoidance keeps fear alive. As long as you steer around what frightens you, it stays large and mysterious in your mind. Facing it directly, even once, gives you real evidence about what happens, and in most cases the experience is far more manageable than the anticipation was.

Some fears persist even after being faced, but most lose much of their power. Consider which fear is shaping your choices most right now, and whether there is a manageable way to meet it head on, perhaps with someone beside you.
