My view, in part, is that fear and faith are the gate-keepers to whatever the next level is...
Take a second to consider where you are today, some of your hang-ups, and the areas that you have challenges getting through. Also, consider the areas that you do well in and have no trouble getting through. What's kept you from that next level?
Friends? Family? Opportunities? Money? Relationships? Communication? Experience? Confidence?
Where Faith is absent Fear exists and quite often the same areas that Faith exists, you'd notice an absence of fear. I am no guru or God among men, but pay attention to the moments when you are led by fear and the moments when your are led by faith. Then make the connections that make sense to you.
