What are some other potential benefits of challenging old assumptions about life and work?

Some other books that discuss the concept of fear as a major obstacle to change include 'Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway' by Susan Jeffers, 'Daring Greatly' by Brené Brown, and 'The War of Art' by Steven Pressfield.

Other strategies to deal with fear include practicing mindfulness and meditation, seeking professional help such as therapy or counseling, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet, and staying connected with supportive friends and family. It's also beneficial to educate oneself about the nature of fear and anxiety, as understanding can often help in managing these feelings.

The author suggests that we should approach potential benefits in the same way we approach our fears. By acknowledging them and mapping out steps to achieve them.
