Fear is an illusion that traps people in their story and limits their capacity for growth. By transcending fear and realizing the infinite potential within oneself, it's possible to overcome limitations and achieve greater things in life.
The way to overcome your fears is by embracing it and accepting it. Transcendental Meditation teacher Bob Roth advises that having the perspective that "it's just a thought" and being mindful in the present moment can help soothe the mind and overcome fear.
