Fear stops most people from starting anything. The speaker says we avoid beginning because we're afraid of what we'll discover, feeling overwhelmed, how long it takes, or failing anyway. Start anyway.
Getting started is the most important step. It's also the most difficult step. It's easier to just avoid it. It's easier to let the people around you do the work. And why do we avoid growth and awareness? We're often scared we'll open up something we don't know how to handle. We're scared it'll be too much or it'll take too long. Scared we'll finally try and then it still won't work.
