Be Empowered to Thrive!
I have a fear of heights. Or, as I say, “I’m not afraid of falling from heights, I’m afraid of the sudden stop at the end of the fall.” When I was younger, I called my summer employer during college to tell him that I was ready to come back to work. He responded that he had no work for me, because the only work they had available was climbing high steel to inspect bolts. He continued, “Whoever takes the job, will be climbing to 40 stories above the air on 10 inch beams.”
I responded, “Perfect. I am only scared of being higher than 50 stories in the air.” I took the job, and every day I faced my fear. Why did I take the job? How did I overcome my fear of heights? Simply, I made an instantaneous decision that my fear of poverty greatly outweighed my fear of falling.
