“Fear does not have any special power unless you empower it by submitting to it. You can accept that you are afraid and then move on.”

Les Brown

Simplified Meaning:

Fear only affects us if we let it. Think about being afraid of giving a speech. If you focus on your fear and don’t try, the fear wins, and you miss the chance to share your ideas. But if you accept the fear, saying, “I’m nervous, but I’ll do it anyway,” you take control. This way, even though the fear is there, it doesn’t stop you from acting. By doing what scares you, you find out that fear isn’t as powerful as it seems. In life, understanding this helps you face challenges and grow stronger.
