Have you no shame? - OGSF 5G | EPRHA 2.0

So, think that you're afraid of something, but you need to function anyway. For example, your neighbor has a big-ass angry dog, and you need to walk just past it every day. Its scary, but you quickly learn you can sort of tense up and push that fear back, and holding that tension you can walk past it. And soon you can walk past it while talking on the phone. The tension is still there, but you've sort of forgotten about it.

Didn't read the rest of your post after this but I just had to comment.

I was doing sales yesterday and there was a dog who growled at me. It was literally the first time this had happened to me whilst doing sales. I've seen a hundred or so dogs, all different sizes, but they never growled at me, so it was strange. I tried to relax into it and pet him but he stayed growling so I figured best not inflame the situation.

It was interesting, and more interesting was how it was the first time this had happened to me.

Not sure exactly what this has to do with your realization, but it was just something I wanted to share.
