I have too much doubt. It’s the bastard child of fear. I hate fear. So doubt sidles up next to determination in my heart. It doesn’t outweigh it. They coexist.

About This Quote

Sometimes, doubt creeps up on us and takes over—not by overpowering our determination, but by making it more difficult to act. It’s like our future selves, whispering that maybe we should do something else. The voice of doubt whispers that we should stop now. It’s the bastard child of fear. We hate fear because it can seem like an obstacle, but it’s not; it’s the one thing that will make us stronger if we choose to listen to it.
