There is no eliminating fear.
There is a way to learn how to dance with it.
To know where to put it.
Seth Godin talks about the marathon runner who finishes the race.
No one at the finish line asks “did you get tired?”
Of course they got tired!
Everyone gets tired.
The people who finish the race just know where to put the tired.
The people who publish books, who write poetry, who make art are all scared.
Scared of criticism, of rejection of humiliation.
They just know where to put the fear.
