Tim Ferriss : Smash fear, learn anything

Tim Ferriss at EG 2008
Smash fear, learn anything  (transcript)
Summary
The speaker tells us that fear is your friend and fear is an indicator that shows you not what you shouldn't do, but what you should do.  It means that you do not do something because of fear, but try doing something though you feel fear.
The analytical frameworks and the capabilities you have must overcome your old fears.

The speaker mastered swimming, Japanese, and tango dancing that were very difficult and he was not good at because of fear.

Now, he thinks that he would feel fear if he wouldn't try them and he couldn’t learn many things.

P.S. I know that. If I didn't start studying English,  I wouldn't have my blog and wouldn't know that writing English is fun. I feel fear when I think about that.
When I've read this article before, I focused only on work efficiency. I didn't remember what I wrote before. Hahaha!! Previous one is this. → (my summary)
