"Where fear exists opportunity awaits" - EP This episode is about the paradox we face every day as we make our way through life. The only way to grow is to dive head first into the uncompromising and all powerful nature that surrounds and overwhelms us. Interestingly enough, the harder we push against it, the greater we become. Every morning our fears, doubts and insecurities should be highlighted...not so that we can avoid them...but so they can set the stage for our individual expansion. Where fear exists opportunity awaits.

The only ones who never find their way are the ones who never leave. For everyone else, where there is a will there is in one form or another, a way. We are presented quite the paradox. We're placed in a world much bigger than we are, in which we have to coexist with forces far stronger than us. We have to accept realities both outside of our comprehension, and controls, we start with an uphill climb. But the beauty of life is that we get to decide where that climb ends.

Because should we choose to utilize it, we are also given the incredible ability to expand. To use those daunting and impossible obstacles around us to become something greater. It's where we decide to push the buttons of conformity, step over the lines of self-consciousness that that big, strong, scary world starts to make just a little more sense. Every time we push back against the things we're inherently fearful of, life's opportunity opens for us. Like a carpet that just never stops unfolding.

We are both outmatched and infinitely powerful. And infinite is the right word. What you become is proportional to how hard you push. Imagine a life where you don't stop pushing. The world expands with courage. By jumping headfirst into hell, we learn to develop the tools to cope with it. It's an amazing thing. That fear-based mindset that came stock with our bodies, it was meant to be built upon.

Fear is the ultimate starting point. The one in which we should ultimately be grateful. How else would we know which direction to set our sails? Emerson says, when a young resolute fellow steps up to the great bully the world and takes him boldly by the beard, he's often surprised to find, comes off in his hand, and that it was only tied on to scare away timid adventurers. See, I worry that some of the most important things we need to know. Life's greatest principles get buried in complexity and misunderstanding,

particularly here with fear and doubt and the things that make us feel small. Right? Because it's ultimately at that point, right when we most want to detract and cave in on ourselves, that we get an opportunity to enhance our state of existence. It's the very point where with a simple decision, we can become something more, we can turn pain into strength and ignorance into wisdom. Sure, we're supposed to be scared. We're supposed to be timid. This is, after all, what it is to be human.

But I also believe, with all my heart, we're supposed to take those things and rule over them, make them transportation to what could be, not a barrier around what is. That's why this danger life continually creates for us. There's nothing more than a metaphorical cocoon. continual reinvention. And how beautiful it is to know that there are no bounds to our potential.

No borders we can't reach as we climb to this ever-changing destination. And how incredible to know that the very obstacles life places before us will, funny enough, be what gets us there.
