Reflection
Courage
The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
— Franklin D. Roosevelt
हमें डरने की जरूरत सिर्फ डर से ही है।
— फ्रैंकलिन डी. रूजवेल्ट
Why this matters:
Fear is often more debilitating than the thing we are afraid of. By recognizing fear as an internal reaction rather than an external reality, we can strip it of its power.
यह क्यों मायने रखता है:
डर अक्सर उस चीज़ से अधिक दुर्बल करने वाला होता है जिससे हम डरते हैं। डर को बाहरी वास्तविकता के बजाय आंतरिक प्रतिक्रिया के रूप में पहचानकर, हम इसे इसकी शक्ति से वंचित कर सकते हैं।
