It brings up a robust debate that calls fear imaginary. Sometimes people refer to this distress as False Evidence Appearing Real. However, we can't ignore that this distress is trying to tell us something. We can ignore fear only at our own risk and naivety. In this article, we will talk about the meaning of the quote fear is not real, danger is. We also talk about how to deal with this imaginary distress to be able to make it work for us.

In an ideal world, we'd want a mixture of the two. However, it makes us question - what's the point of a life where we don't feel alive most of the time? This quote makes us think about the spirit of life and how we can add more meaning to it. The answer is different to each individual but the premise remains the same - it is about the quality of our life that comes from the meaning we associate to it.

It talks about the beauty of a dream, commitment and the effort to make something a reality. It reflects on the people who turn up to help when we need it the most. However, for that to happen, we ought to take the first step. The first step is the decision to commit to something that we feel strongly for. Our job is to foster this dream and to make it important to make that a reality.

We must do this because how we do it sometimes matters more than just the what. If you look at it from an external perspective, we can argue that all jobs are menial. It is only when we compare what we do to someone else, that the question of worth comes into play. Each job or work has its significance, value and importance in its own right. The world cannot function without each of us playing our roles.

However, the leadership required during these stages don't change. It just demands a different type of skillset dig deep into the core values and lead the team. Lots of companies have taken the route of shedding employees to save costs. However, it raises a question about the sustainability of such an approach. A fast-hire/fire culture may not always be the best course of action.
