Most of us have seen the scene from Crocodile Dundee when he is walking the streets of New York and some muggers come up with a little knife, his famous line "that's not a knife... this is a knife!" sends the muggers running.
When we are navigating our lives and working towards our goals there are lots of fears that may try to mug us, only instead of a knife, what will keep us safe is a big "why".
