Vishen Lakhiani argues you should trust the process because safety lines exist: family, money, laws. He walked 35 feet high on a course with a harness to show how fear overestimates actual risk. Act bolder when you know what's really protecting you.

Is life happening for you or to you see, like, do you really believe that? I went to this obstacle course, and it was all these, like, balance beams and little discs on ropes that you had to walk across. And you're 35ft in the air. So if you fall, you're going to fall 35ft, except for the fact that you have a safety line on, right? So how do people walk across these things? And this is how a lot of us are living. We don't believe that it's happening to us. We believe that it's happening to us, not for us. So we're walking like this. And so I got to the beginning of the balance beam, and I said, how would I walk across this if I really knew the safety line was there? I walked across it. I did all the course like that, the entire course. The guy who runs the course comes up and he goes, how long have you been coming here? How do you just walk across it like that? And I go, dude, there's a safety line. So what if you did that with your life? We have family safety lines. We have financial safety lines. We have bankruptcy laws. I'm not saying that there's no danger at all, but the danger that you actually live with is infinitesimally small compared to the danger that you're dealing with. DNA thinks you're living with.
