What's a fear you've had in your life that you managed to beat?


For me it was driving, from the time I was 10 I had recurring nightmares of being the only person in a speeding car and crashing. And especially after Lisa Lopes died, I was really freaked out about it, I did not want to drive, I was terrified of it, and I was scared the whole time I was learning, which is probably why it took so long.

But it finally came down to a point that I had to get my license because the only thing I was more afraid of was having to take the written test again and possibly flunking it again, that I could not live with. And once I passed and I got my license, I didn't start driving on my own at first because I was still worried that I wasn't good enough to drive alone yet, but now that I can drive and know what I'm doing I haven't had those crashing nightmares anymore.

Congratulations on facing your fear and overcoming it.
