“You can’t shut fear out. But you can know it. And you can talk to it and say, 'I'm going to go around you'.”
— Salman Rushdie

Simplified Meaning:
Fear is something that everyone experiences, and it's impossible to get rid of it completely. Think of fear like a big wall in front of you. Instead of trying to make that wall disappear, you can accept that it's there and find a way to deal with it. Imagine you're about to give a speech, and you're really scared. You acknowledge that fear, understand why you feel it, and then tell yourself, 'Even though I'm scared, I'm going to do it anyway.' This way, you don't let fear stop you. You find a path around it and keep moving forward. This approach helps you face challenges and helps you grow stronger every time you overcome your fears.
