Episode Notes
Be Better Today (Season 2, Episode 25) – Change: Erica Jong
The theme of fear as an unwelcome guest of change continues today with this quote from American novelist, poet, and satirist, Erica Jong, who said: “I have accepted fear as part of life — specifically the fear of change... I have gone ahead despite the pounding in the heart that says: turn back.”
Conquering fear is a skill. With practice, you will recognize your physical and mental state before change. From there, you can normalize it, taking away much of the power from fear. Once you have done that, often with help from others, you are able to conquer the negatives and embrace change. Challenging, but so worth it.
