You don't have to become an extreme athlete in order to team up with fear. But it is worth leaving the security of your comfort zone and taking risks. Because if we can accept our fear, it will make our lives richer.

Extreme climber Alexander Huber experiences this phenomenon first-hand on his tours. He says, "Fear enables concentration, because every grip has to be accurate-fear is not my weakness, fear is my best friend. It drives us, protects, warns, restrains and guides us."

In this book, Alexander Huber conveys that fear is only a bad advisor if it is not dealt with. But when you do, it becomes a friend, steers decisions in the right direction and sharpens your focus on the essential.
