Often we think, "I'll do it when I am not so afraid." But in reality, it works the other way round. The "doing it" comes before the fear goes away. The only way to get rid of the fear of sharing the opportunity, painting a GIGANTIC VISION, and becoming the true leader you are is to go out and do it. Action is the key. Once you have done something you have feared a number of times, guess what happens...the fear of that particular situation goes away. And it's then time to further expand the comfort zone and move on to the next situation you fear. That's what growth is all about. And as your confidence builds, it will become easier and easier to "feel the fear and do it anyway!"

Thank you..so true!!
You should attribute the phrase, "Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway", to its author Susan Jeffers, Ph.D., who wrote the book with the same title.
Thank you for the Valuable Point. MarkMDC
