Borrowing Bravery: How to Use Your Alter Ego to Overcome Fear

Fear has a sneaky way of holding us back, doesn’t it?

It whispers quietly, convincing us we're not good enough, ready enough, or brave enough to step forward. You know the feeling:

  • your heart races

  • your palms sweat

Suddenly, avoiding the thing you're scared of feels way more appealing than facing it.

Trust me, we've all been there.

But here's a little secret: You don't always have to face those fears as your everyday self. What if I told you there's another version of you? A braver, stronger, and completely unbothered by fear—just waiting to step into the spotlight?

One Positive Action

Spend a moment appreciating something simple:

We tend to think of resilience as something big, something we build through struggle and triumph, through lessons learned the hard way. But more often than not, resilience starts in the smallest moments. It’s built in the quiet, in the pause, in the choice to appreciate something simple: a warm bed at the end of a long day, a deep breath that reminds us we’re still here, the way the light hits the kitchen table in the morning.

Gratitude isn’t about pretending everything is fine when it isn’t. It’s not about glossing over the hard stuff. It’s about anchoring ourselves in what’s steady and real, even when life feels anything but. When we notice and name the good, no matter how small, we’re reminding ourselves that there’s still something solid beneath our feet. That even in uncertainty, there are things worth holding onto.

And here’s the thing about gratitude: it doesn’t erase pain, but it does give us the strength to carry it. It reminds us that joy and struggle can exist in the same breath. That we can be exhausted and still grateful. That we can be uncertain and still find moments of peace. Gratitude is one of the most accessible, powerful tools we have. It doesn’t require perfection, just presence.

So today, take a moment. Look around. Find one thing, just one, to appreciate. Not because it changes everything, but because it reminds you that you’re still here. And sometimes, that’s enough.
