My brain is very good at making arguments. Give it thirty seconds of stillness at the start of anything uncomfortable and it will build a full legal case for why today is not the right day. The conditions are wrong. The timing is off. You are not prepared enough. Someone could get hurt. What if. I have learned to treat those thirty seconds as a countdown rather than a deliberation. Not because I am fearless. I am genuinely not fearless. I get scared regularly. I have stood at the top of things and felt my body do the full panic sequence and decided to go anyway. The going anyway is not bravery. It is just moving faster than the fear can organize itself. That is the only trick I know. It has never stopped working. #adventurewoman #solotravel #mindset #femalefounder
