If your dreams don't really scare you then they aren't big enough yet.
But it goes past just being scared. There are times when you will be paralyzed in fear. You'll feel the immensity of the dream weighing down on your shoulders. Dreams are dense. They're significantly heavy sometimes. But they also have an incredible lightness about them if you actually give them an opportunity to blossom.
You see, most people try to go after their dreams a few times, and when they fail, they give up fully. The amount of sacrifice, discomfort, and torment it takes to continually go after something that you have imagined in your mind is enormous. Gigantic dreams will test your personality. If you are not the individual you need to be to see the dream through, dreams will effectively teach you those lessons through failure and ripping the rug out from beneath you. They have minds of their own and they can be your greatest teachers.
What can we do when that paralyzing fear comes in trying to stop us?
Nothing really.
If you feel that fear and allow it some room to roam around inside your mind and your body for a while, you can actually work with the fear instead of constantly pushing it away. You can learn from it instead of running away from it.
Feel your fears and they will teach you everything you need to know about what's actually going inside of you. They will teach you why you suffer and what it is that you need to work on. But most importantly, when you decide to feel your fears you develop deep relationships with them of understanding instead of avoidance. When you come to this place, you could build strong foundations in your life instead of always being on the run.
How incredible would that be - to be well situated with your emotions and to create an unbreakable foundation built on your worst fears and your enormous dreams? You would never run again. In fact, you would stand strong through any storm as you are constructed from something that roots itself thousands of feet deep down into the ground and extends miles into the sky above.
So if your big dreams scare you, good. But when that fear arrives, don't run from it. Instead, use it. Melt it down and cast foundations with it. Court it. Create a relationship with it. There's great power in fear, but you need to be willing to hook straight into it.
