Yeah, she also said "Do one thing every day that scares you." I'd been telling myself "Do something you're afraid of every day!" for years before I read that the first time. :) (And I'm sure that lots and lots of people had the same idea before, and after.)

However (and contrary to all the motivational stuff that says "You can do what you want!" and "Do what you think you cannot do!"), there are things we can do and things we can't do. I guess the real art is to find out which ones are worth trying. :)

But looking fear in the face, thinking through what can or will happen, and doing things you're afraid of but know you'll have to do eventually is (in my opinion) always a good idea.
