is interesting.

And I've given you extreme examples, but I've come to realize most of us in our lives, we're living our fears, not our dreams.

There is this diffuse fear that most of us don't even see it.

And it really undermines our ability to make choices, take actions.

that might allow us to live to our fullest potential.

Daily choices that paralyze us.

Some have described courage as the master virtue that unlocks all other virtues.

That without courage, you can't really experience other virtues.

Now, having said that, I also wrote, my first chapter was on cowardice.

Coward is one of the worst words you can use to describe somebody.

But I think it's important to start this journey

by first recognizing that fear is normal, you got to name it to tame it, first of all.

There's a lot of shaming around fear.

Don't be scared.

I remember doing that to my kids myself, right?

I don't want to go to the basement, dad.

It's scary.

I'm like, what do you mean it's scary?

Get down there.

And we do it much more to boys than girls.
