Episode #623: How do you become more courageous? Simple: take action! If you DO NOT take any risk, you won’t receive any GAIN. Action is the most potent antidote to fear. It breeds confidence and it nurtures courage in a way that nothing else can.

People’s brains are wired to OVERESTIMATE RISK. They exaggerate the consequences and they underestimate the ability to handle it. It’s almost like our brains are risk-averse, our brains want to play it safe. Fear will always drive you to play safe, so start taking action because that’s the only thing that will help you become more courageous.
