fear has always been and always will be a paralyzing emotion, acting directly on the reptilian brain. living in a state of fear means being unconscious and having no control over the body or the mind. 

what a sound mind in a sound body experiences is nervousness, restlessness, anticipation, which an intelligent man/woman follows-up with preparation.

What is preventing you from reaching your goal?

Fear is something to be felt, not followed. However, it is not to be ignored, because one might need to analyze the approach.
