How to overcome fear of judgement: a passage from the book.

One more gap, and it matters for you. I couldn't find a study that measured how fear or anger changes a would-be founder's estimate of their own business's chances. Everything above was measured on other kinds of judgement, from terrorism to investments to relationships. Applying it to your business is reasoning, not a finding, and you should hold it that way. I do.

From chapter 2: Afraid people see different odds

Your fears were about what other people would think, not about business. That's normal, and a later book in this series is about exactly that fear. Score them anyway. The method is the same, and so is the lesson about how rarely a loud forecast turns out to be a true one.
