Sometimes it's really hard to diminish the feeling of fear.
Whenever I need to initiate an action, I'll take some time to think about it. Eventually I will lose my motivation in carrying out that action. Probably it's due to the amount of time I killed while considering the act. Besides, it means more time for me to craft out ideas to reject and build fear out of it.
Almost instant, I enjoyed the feeling of relief after I decline to act. This is basically mounting my fear instead of my courage to proceed. The relief I got was like a reward for not taking the action. So the more I refrain myself from doing it, the more reward I will claim, and the more actions I will try to avoid in the future.
I can hear the small voice telling me to stop behaving like a child, who afraid of everything. But one thing though, if I behave like a child, I will probably just go ahead without thinking much.
Somehow I believe this relates to Occam's razor which suggested as few assumptions as possible to be made in any phenomenon, and eliminating those that make no difference in the observable predictions of the explanatory hypothesis or theory.
Before we confuse ourself with that Occam's phrase, just do it like what Nike says.

I think fear is also related to experience, when we're more experienced in doing something, we have lesser fear to no fear.
I tend to back down after over analyzing actions.
I certainly wish I had more of that naivete as I did as a child.
be confident with whatever u are into. believe in yourself. :)
