I never let fear dictate my actions. Nor do I surrender to that fear, forcing me into inaction. Fear is never part of the equation. It's always an afterthought. When I was fighting, fear was just a shadow in the background. I focused on the work, the relentless grind, the sacrifices that success demands. I was ready to make those sacrifices. Now I do the exact same in business. If you're truly committed to achieving something, giving it your all is the only way. And facing rejection and failure is unavoidable, but understanding and overcoming them is what matters. If you’re giving half-assed attempts, you’re going to get half-assed results. Half assed results just mean there is some element of fear holding you back… You have to be willing to work on dissolving that fear through self-awareness and constant self-evaluation every step of the way. Every time you face failure, take a step back and evaluate. Work out your next three moves and how to side step that pitfall next time. The sooner you take responsibility for your failure, the quicker you can analyse and move forward. I took responsibility for my decisions, using each setback as a stepping stone. Turning negative experiences into positive motivation, Let fear be just a fleeting thought, never the driver of your journey. - Luke
