No, no, no, so not getting the point of fear. Because fear wasn't about what made sense. Fear was about possibilities. Not things that happened. Things that might.

About This Quote

Fear was about possibilities. Fear was about things that might. It was about what might actually happen. It was not about what did happen.

If you had a fear of snakes, you would not die from a snake bite. You would die from the power of your fear. The same with the things we fear.

When we come face to face with our fears, they become just that: fears. We no longer suffer and we no longer feel the power of our fears, because we have finally faced them and conquered them. Life is full of possibilities and we can achieve anything that we want if we keep our eyes on the possibilities and not the things that are happening right now.
