Everyone has fear, it's not something you get rid of. The differences are mainly in the way the fears are approached. For example, you're ten thousand feet in the sky, standing over the open door of a small passenger jet. You're looking down, the wind's rushing through your hair and your parachute's safely secured. Do you jump?

Stephen Hawking once said that the universe splits everytime a decision is made, so let's roll on that theory: in one universe you jump, in another you don't. In both universes, you go back a month later for a second attempt. Which one of you is more likely to jump? They both have fear, but one has belief and the other one lacks it. 'Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.'
