My whole life I've been telling myself, "don't be afraid". And it is only now that I'm realizing how stupid that is. Don't be afraid. Like saying "don't move out of the way when someone tries to punch you" or "don't flinch at the heat of a fire" or "don't blink". Don't be human. I'm afraid and you're afraid and we're all always going to be afraid, because that's the point. What I should be telling myself is "be afraid, but do it anyway". Live anyway. Unknown
About This Quote

It is not easy to live when you are afraid of everything; there are people who live with fear and it affects their lives, they can’t do anything, they cannot think clearly. On the contrary, I believe that fearlessness is the only way to reach success. You won’t reach success if you are afraid of everything; you will achieve that when you live every day like there is no tomorrow.
