Summary

Overcome negativity and you can overcome fear.

If you’ve lived with fear, you can overcome it. The first step is gaining the upper hand over negativity. Fear prevents you from reaching out to others. If you think only of yourself, you may see your shortcomings as major obstacles.

Passion is the driving force behind courage.

Consider the significance and impact that your actions might have for someone else. You probably know you could make a difference, and you should follow that call. Once you do, you’ll find that fear has a much weaker hold on you.
