I had a dream last night where I wasnāt afraid of anything. Long story short: I was running from the cops on some train tracks. As I veered away from the train tracks on foot, I entered a weird sandstone fish-alien castle society with a bunch of obscure passageways and dungeons. As I entered, I leaped urgently into a sandstone hut & was greeted by grey little fish-looking alien creatures who were floating around me in curiosity. These guys were harmlessā¦ Untilā¦ I heard a spooky, ominous chime that came from directly below this hut area - as if I was in a Minecraft underwater temple. I knew there were more dangerous figures to come. I immediately went and investigated what it was. I floated down some greyish-blue sandstone stairs and was revealed a deeper underworld full of even more passageways and rooms. Suddenly, I came across a fish that resembled a chunky stingray with a hard, grey shell and angry eyes. He challenged me, and I immediately started shooting him with my Halo gun (which seemed to spawn from nowhere) zap-zap-zap!! and as I destroyed this fish, dissolving the threat, I continued into the depths of this mysterious fish cave. As I descended, the darker it became. The walls and halls became shadows, and the ominous noises began to clarify. And not 10 seconds later... BOSS BATTLE. A DEMON FISH starts attacking me. Red eyes, scaly, sharp outer shell. He instantly challenges me and swims urgently towards me. He's PISSED. I whip out my halo gun, and start UNLOADING on this thing. zap-zap-zap-zap-zap-zap-zap-zap!!!! Taking damage, I stay persistent- *reload* zap-zap-zap-zap-zap-zap-zap-zap!!!! With half a heart, Down he went. The cave was mine. I was the king of fearāthe king of this society. The underwater shadows had a new monster. ... Okay, stupid story aside... The main lesson here is that when you ATTACK directly the thing that scares you... you become the feared. You become invincible. & when you challenge the things that scare you, whether it's making content, finding clients, or networking with *scary* high level people, you BECOME the person that people are intimidated by. It is binary. You are either the intimidatOR or the indimitatED.
