How do you think people can overcome their fears better? One way that you see in climbing a lot is just starting by deciding whether or not your fears are rational or well founded. You know, I mean, in climbing it's a little bit easier because your fear is often physical. Like it's based on some physical thing, like you're actually in real danger as opposed to sort of psychological, like, you know, fear of failure and things like that. But I think it's easy to start with like, is this a rational fear? Does this make sense? And in some ways that actually makes more sense for the psychological things. Because if you're like, oh, I'm afraid because my friends will make fun of me, you know, maybe you should really think about it. Like, will your friends make fun of you for taking your shot at your dream? Like, no, your friends, if they're real friends, they're going to be pretty psyched for you and they'll be bummed that it didn't work out, but they'll be impressed that you tried. They'll respect the effort. That's maybe the place to start is like, is this a well founded fear?
