I was sh*tting myself

Fear isn't what you think it is. Most of the time, what we call fear is just unfamiliarity in disguise. That presentation making your palms sweat? Do it a hundred times and it becomes routine. The difficult conversation you're avoiding? Have fifty of them and they become second nature. The stage that feels like standing on the edge of a cliff? Perform there enough and it becomes home. We mistake novelty for danger. Our brains are wired to fear the unknown, but here's the truth: familiarity breeds confidence. So stop waiting to feel brave. Start getting familiar. The fear doesn't disappear because you conquered it. It fades because you normalized it. What's one thing you're avoiding right now that just needs more repetition?
