A lot of people are scared, right? They don't act because they're scared. But I would ask you, ask yourself another question, because usually people, it's like, oh, I'm scared if I do this, this is what's going to happen. But then reframe that question, and you're still using the power of questions. Ask yourself, what will happen if you don't do this? Because then you use that, that fear in something that can help you to move positively forward. So fear is a big motivator for you. Utilize that instead of being at the effect of it. And be fearful of what will happen if you don't do what is most important.
