Fear

Move forward with courage

Bhagavad Gita 16.1

"Fearlessness, purity of heart, steadfastness in wisdom and yoga — these are the qualities of one born to divine endowment."

Modern interpretation

In the middle of the day, return to this: Fearlessness is not the absence of fear, but the refusal to be commanded by it.

Practical action

Name the worst that could happen, then ask yourself: could I begin to handle it?

Reflection question

What would I do next if I knew I couldn't ultimately be diminished?
