Fear wears so many clever disguises it is virtually impossible to always recognize it. Fear disguises itself as the need to be somewhere else, doing something else, not knowing how to do something or not needing to do something.

About This Quote

Fear is often the most dangerous feeling you have. Fear can stop you from doing things, it can stop you from being who you are, it can stop you from being happy. Fear comes in many forms, many disguises. It can be your boss, your friend or family member, your job or the people around you.

It’s best to recognize that fear is tricking you into believing that these people are important to you or that they know something about you that helps make your life better. When they are wrong, they are wrong. But when they are right, they are right too.

When they are wrong, they are wrong. But when they are right, they are right too. Do not let fear rule your life.
