Well put Shannon. I've never been too fond of fear. To me it's only hindered me from doing what I wanted to do. Two examples I can think of. Skateboarding for one. I haven't done anything super dangerous yet, but I know if you have fear and don't commit to what you are doing 100 percent the likelihood of getting hurt is greater. The other is boxing. You can have all the technical knowledge, but if you start letting fear get to you it saps you of energy and you can't go as long in the ring.
I've tried to look at the positive side of fear and maybe just about the only thing that feels good is when you push past it. But why bother with all that frustration to begin with? It would be so much easier to just not have the fear and do what you want to do. I do believe that some people are fearless and those are the people who get what they want out of life.
