Observe animals. You will see that they act on their instinct, They act rather than procrastinate. Animals also do not live in fear. When they need to retreat to heal a wound, they do so.

Incorporate some animal characteristics into your life, try to follow your instincts more. Lead a less fear based life if you do not already do so.
