There's a quote by Kusti Amato, Mike Tyson's trainer at one point.

He said, the hero and the coward both feel the same thing.

But the hero uses his fear, projects it onto his opponent.

While the coward runs,

it's the same thing, fear,

but it's what you do with it that matters.

In other words, it's not that some of us can skip,

fear altogether, remove it, eliminate it.

No, we all at some point or another find ourselves standing face to face with fear.

The question is, what do you do in that moment when it's your turn?

I've always said fear doesn't get easier.

It doesn't hurt less.

But it's not supposed to.

You can't change what fear is, but you can change what it does for you, how it impacts

your life.

Your life is determined by the relationship you build with that four-letter word.

When does reality shift?

It shifts when your hands tremble, when your palms sweat, when there's that feeling of uneasiness in your stomach,

when the easiest thing in the world to do is walk away, but you carry on anyway.

There's a rewiring that occurs.

When that same trigger that historically tells you to run ultimately becomes your invitation to accept something

greater, to become something more.
