We fear something or someone that can hurt us. (Our wellbeing is threatened.)
We fear things that are completely our of our control. (We are vulnerable.)
We also fear the unknown. (What we have information on, we can learn, and what we can learn, we can at least prepare for.)
This, however, may be a surprise: we fear having talent.
What do we do with it?
Where would we go?
How would we live?
Threatened, vulnerable, and unprepared peril in comparison to the nagging, daily reminder that we weren’t being true to ourself?
Are you purposefully avoiding what you're good at?
