We have been trained to always prepare for the worst. This had the side effect of training us to always be cautious. Now, people always play it safe, in everything.
But when you think about it, the worst probably will not happen.
If something bad do happens, it will most probably not be as bad as you think it will be.
So, I think, people should be less afraid and take a tad bit more risk in pursuing, ultimately, their life’s work — their legacy to leave behind.
I think we’ve paid more than enough in fear taxes.
