Quote by Stan Dale
It all changed when I realized I'm not the only one on the planet who's scared. Everyone else is, too. I started asking people, Are you scared, too? You bet your sweet life I am. Aha, so that's the way it is for you, too. We were all in the same boat. That's probably what is so effective at our workshops. When I ask, Who else feels like this? the whole room of hands goes up. People realize they are not the only one who feels that way.
Summary
This quote emphasizes the transformative power of realizing that fear is not a solitary experience. When the speaker acknowledges that everyone feels scared, it opens up possibilities for connection and understanding. By reaching out to others and finding common ground, the speaker realizes that they are never alone in their fears. This awareness becomes significant in their workshops, where raising the question about shared feelings of fear leads to a room full of hands acknowledging their vulnerability. It highlights the comfort and effectiveness of realizing that others share similar fears, fostering a sense of unity, empathy, and a collective strength to face challenges.
