Do Not Fear
„Excessive fear takes away the radiance of life from man and from every feeling living creature. There is nothing evil and cruel in the world that resembles it.”From Ikvei HaTzon, 'The Fear'
Fear has the power to paralyze a person from acting, and accordingly to paralyze a person from developing. A person who fears and becomes paralyzed by his fears cannot advance. Therefore one must heal paralyzing fear — to find it a remedy and to develop through it caution and stratagems that will allow the continued progress and development that are the key to victory.
