| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the charged life. |
| 0:05.0 | This is Brandon Bouchard. |
| 0:07.0 | I believe that fear gets way too much airplay. |
| 0:14.0 | You know, I think so many people say, well, people don't take action because they have too much fear, or fear is holding people back. |
| 0:20.0 | And I think this is so common in our language, it's almost to the point where it's |
| 0:23.6 | almost comedic. |
| 0:25.6 | It's ridiculous. |
| 0:26.6 | Well, what are they fearful of? |
| 0:27.6 | What are they so scared of? |
| 0:29.6 | We live in the modern world right now where there's not all these impulsive fears that are |
| 0:34.6 | driven by a physical reality to be safe. |
| 0:36.6 | You know, we're not being chased by animals |

| 1:21.6 | It's the unconscious fears, it's just wiping us out. |
| 1:24.6 | It's like, get over it. Neuroscience has shown. We have much more powerful capabilities than most of us think that we do. And the reality is, most fear, once you understand what it actually is, and it usually is a contemplative process, and once they understand what it is, then it's like, oh, we can overcome it. Because what is it then? I mean, what is fear? What are we so scared of? What's going to hurt us? What is this thing that we fear is going to bring so much pain in our lives? Ever thought about it? What is it? What is the thing that we're so scared that's going to bring in all this pain to our lives? I remember figuring this out for myself and when I did I wasn't so scared |
