Nerve by Taylor Clark is a great read. It is an entertaining and insightful look into fear. He shares some key methods to deal with fear, anxiety, and stress. I didn’t say overcome fear because our fears are here to stay (for the most part). The hero’s of the world acknowledge the fear and move forward with it.
Lesson #2: Put your feelings into words.
“…research shows that talking or writing about an emotion like fear helps the brain to process it behind the scenes…[this process literally] changes their emotions…”
“I never know what I think about something until I read what I’ve written on it.”-William Faulkner
