One of the most important lessons that I have learned in life is to "face your fears". Fears can hold us back from experiencing everything that life has to offer. When we give into fear we limit ourselves. We can do this, go that far, but no more.

My fear then was a fear of failure due to circumstances that I personally both at home and in school. I was so afraid that I would fail that I failed to take action. This was a self fulfilling cycle that kept me from achieving goals that I had in my business and personal life. I was so paralyzed by fear that I did nothing. I would get excited to do something, and get ready to do it and then the fear would take over and I would quit. It was so pathetic but I learnt that I can conquer it as life went on and I did...

So what of you, tell us the most important lessons you've learnt in life so far?
