"If your dreams don't scare you, they're not big enough." I had no idea how much I needed that.

This really describes my life now always thinking about failure before trying, fearful and anxious to try anything when I see other people being excellent at it ! I hope I'll make it out of here

How has this video only had 2k views? This is superb and has helped me understand.

Very inspiring talk. I was looking for videos that would help me overcome sport anxiety. I'm a woman and I started a new combat sport recently. I find it difficult and it can be nerve raking at times for many different reasons. I'm glad I found this talk. It was everything I needed to hear.

Currently enrolling in music school for guitar. I’ve been playing for like 7 years and absolutely love it. Sat down in front of the head of music today to sample for him and I completely bombed and felt horrible to the point I was wondering if I should do this. Your video helped shed light of some issues I probably have so thank you.
