Fear is an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat. It also means to be afraid of someone or something. Fear can be a major obstacle to achieving greatness. There’s a saying: “Whenever you are scared to do something, that’s when you should do it, or it might not be possible again.” This means that if you don’t take that seemingly scary step now, you might not get another chance.
Another saying states that opportunity comes but once—once lost, it might not be possible to regain. Many dreams have been left unaccomplished because of fear. The only difference between where you stand and where you want to be is the noise in your head caused by fear.
