“Fear is inevitable, but it should never be a stopping point.”
-Jeff Bezos

“Fear is an insidious virus. Given a breeding place in our minds, it will permeate the whole body of our work; it will eat away at our spirit and block the forward path of our endeavors. Fear is the greatest enemy of progress. Progress moves ever on, and does not linger to consider microscopically the implication of each particular action. Only small and over-cautious minds see the shadows of lurking enemies and dangers everywhere and shrink away from the increased efforts needed to overcome them. Fear is met and destroyed with courage. Again and again, when the struggle seems hopeless and all opportunity lost – some man or woman with a little more courage, a little more effort, brings victory.”
-James F. Bell
