A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR…
Hello! I’m Scott Simon. I am a father of two, a happiness entrepreneur, speaker, coach, and founder of the Scare Your Soul courage movement. I’m also an introvert and have suffered from social anxiety for years. And the truth is, I happen to feel fear all the time. The fear of failing at things I care about. Of disappointing others, of being rejected, of losing the people I care about, of not living up to my potential.
And yet, I am dedicated to not letting those very natural fears stop me.
I wasn’t always this way — my early life was overcome with feelings of unworthiness and low self-esteem. But, thanks to one powerful epiphany on a flight at age 21, I managed to stop hiding from my fears. Instead, I started chasing them.
I’ve dedicated the second half of my life to learning about courage and what activates it. Now, I spend my time practicing courageous acts and motivating others to join me. This book is a culmination of those experiences. It’s a roadmap to an adventurous life filled with energy, gratitude, forgiveness, and curiosity.
This book is dedicated to those of you who …
