“I’ve been absolutely terrified every moment of my life – and I’ve never let it keep me from doing a single thing I wanted to do.” ― Georgia O’Keeffe

Day #7. I once thought successful people weren’t scared. I thought they achieved greatness because they were far braver than me. I thought they had special reserves of fire I’d never have. I watched enviously, wondering how they were so blessed with courage & why wasn’t I? Then I met a few & found out I was wrong. These people weren’t without fear, they simply didn’t let it stop them. And this, of course, is very the definition of courage: to be scared & not let it stop you.
