The Power of Action
“The only way to escape the prison of fear is to take action.” Joe Tye
Action not just erodes fear, but it also liberates us. Along the way, it also makes other lives richer by reaching beyond our constraints and liberates them. Furthermore, with this, we realize that the majority of our fears are nothing but illusions in our minds.
Remember something in your life that you were completely afraid of but still ventured out to accomplish. What changed in your life?
Fear is a strong feeling that we encounter in various aspects of our lives. Taking up a new profession, standing in front of an audience, embarking on a journey that is full of uncertainties… They all can have the power to instill fear and doubt within us. But as Joe Tye advises, the only way to break down the intangible walls erected by fear is by taking action.
Though sometimes fear is helpful to protect us, too many times it makes us its servants and does not allow us to reveal our talents. The way of thinking like "What if I fail?", "What if people criticize me?", "What if something happens wrong?"occupies our mind and freezes us. And on the contrary, that is the food for fear: inactivity.
And the magnitude of our fears come from the idleness which feeds them. Never let them overpower you by being inactive. Because, as the only way to be free is through action.
