This quote from the Stoic, Seneca the Younger, is profound. Too often we let fear of what might happen hold us back. Usually these fears are not founded in reality and deceive us to believe a lie. Overcome the fears in your head. Forge ahead with knowledge and power based on reality and your work, study, and results. - Terry Brock

That's true. Fear can prevent us from achieving our purpose in life.

There is one phrase that comes up in the BIBLE over & over again, "be not afraid".

Yes. I think we see that in many philosophy and religious texts from Islam to Buddhism to others. Thank you for sharing that.

This is also true in Option trading. Volatility measures fear is almost always slightly more than the reality bears out. If one can understand this and limit max loss, one can have lots of consistently winning trades.

Good points @gregvence. Fear can be a very dangerous thing in option trading. Thank you for sharing this.
