Managing fear of failure: a passage from the book.

That's the one idea I want you to take from this chapter. Fear doesn't make you safer. It moves you away from the danger you can picture and toward one you can't see.

From chapter 1: The safer road

Why should that matter to you, if you have never been anywhere near an attack? Because nothing in the idea is about planes. Nobody has tested probability neglect on a picture of your business closing with your name on it, so treat what follows as a working assumption rather than a proven fact, but it's the assumption this whole book is built on.
