Fear is a Compass: Lean In and Move Forward

My father once shared something with me that I will never forget.

Fear is a compass.

Most people hesitate.

Overthink.

Avoid.

But fear is often a signal that you're on the right track.

He then quoted Imam Ali.

"When you are afraid of something, dive straight into it, because the intensity of the abstaining from it is greater than what you're afraid of."

Most of the time, fear isn’t real—it’s just discomfort dressed up as danger.

Writing that post.

Launching that offer.

Starting that conversation.

You don’t get rid of fear by waiting.

You get rid of fear by moving.

Take action my friend, it's all on the other side.

I was afraid to publish my first book, then messages like this continue to fill my email and inbox.

Lean in, trust it.
