Fear is one of our biggest obstacles. It’s often times the thing that holds us back, especially as creatives. It’s easy to take the safe road in life, but when we go down that path we never get to challenge ourselves.
Progress is about pushing our own boundaries. Fear is perfectly natural, yet it’s something we’ve been taught to suppress. We get mad at ourselves, call ourselves a chicken, and beat ourselves up for feeling that way. Instead we should embrace it. Accept it. Even encourage it. Being afraid lets us know we are on the right path, because it means we are working towards something we care about.
On this episode of Creative Warriors we are joined by Akshay Nanavati. Akshay is an ex-marine, who served 6 years and came back with PTSD. After severe depression and suicidal thoughts he began to explore the human brain and what makes us truly happy. His biggest discovery was that our fears are what really make us feel the most fulfilled.

Highlights - Fear is an indicator we are going in the right direction. When you push your limits, that’s when you find out who you are. It’s important to get to the root of your fear. There are two fears: learned fears and genetic fears. Ask yourself “why” five times. Judging yourself for feeling fear is the real problem. Meditation allows you to create space between your emotional brain and your rational brain. When you resist an emotion, it only makes it worse. We live on autopilot. Easy is not better.
