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
Our fears are always more numerous than our dangers - Seneca the Younger

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.
