Is Fear an Illusion?

Earlier this week I received an email with a question that looked pretty simple, but the more I thought about it, the more interested I became.

My Fear Of Heights Cost Me My Job

You read that right. My fear of heights cost me my job. It’s a weird thing to say, and an even weirder thing to go through. Maybe I’m just blaming it on my fear of heights, and really it’s a lack of courage. After all, we can get over our fears, right? Well not me. At lea...

“The Fear Of Everything”

“The fears we don’t face become our limits.” The thing that restricts a person from achieving anything in life, whether it’s in the perspective of love, career, or relationships, is fear. It’s like termites that hollow a person from the inside. The problem with fear ...

Why Managers Fear Asynchronous Work (And Why They Shouldn’t)

I’ve been a fan of async work ever since I’ve heard of it, and I just wrote recently about how I believe it’s the best solution to improve both productivity (which I’m a big fan of) and employee engagement. But async is not an option for a lot of people (the majo...

Don’t Fear the Blanks

I was staring at my computer screen the other day trying to come up with a topic for my next Medium article. I was drawing a blank. I had pondered it on a long Sunday walk as well as the day after.

Not Faith Nor Fear

The greatest evolutionary leaps- a large complex brain, capacity for language, symbolic expression- occurred only in the last 100 thousand years. Language occurred in the las...

My Biggest Fear

Dogs are dichromatic (see less colors than us), and they rely on olfaction. Dolphins don’t need to see well underwater, so they echolocate. Parrots and hummingbirds see too many more colors than we do. Fish sense electric fields to know their surroundings...

The Disparity Between Fear And Progress

Myown conflict with authority began at an early age, when I realized pretty quickly that adults were not only quite fallible, but often incompetent as well. This can be a frightening thing to learn as a child, but I was not to be deterred. I simply assumed I would need to care for myself, make my ow...
