GROWTH MINDSET.  Where is your fear, driving or in the back seat? Trevor Ragan tells us that fear robs us of learning opportunities all the time and that we don't have to be fearless, we just have to learn to keep it in the backseat.  Author Elizabeth Gilbert echoes that in her book "The Big Magic."  She says, "It seems to me that the less I fight my fear, the less it fights back. If I can relax, fear relaxes, too . . . I even have a welcoming speech prepared for fear, which I deliver right before embarking upon any new project or big adventure." HERE is a short video (2 minutes) "A Letter to Fear" by Elizabeth Gilbert.
