Premise:
As creative professionals, we all face our demons and struggles with all kinds of fears. What we would all benefit from is to realise that most of the times, our anticipation of fear is a lot worse than it really is.
I came across this short video about an angler fish and it immediately appealed to me and my understanding of fear and wanted to share this with all of you.
I will let you watch this 3.5 min video first.
Not sure if this was the intent of the team that put together this video, but I think it brilliantly captures the we experience fear and what the reality mostly is.
In conclusion:
It is our vivid imagination that makes things feel a lot more fearful than they really are. Once we know and understand this reality, it becomes easier to take that first step to overcome the fear.
