Michelle Obama comprehends worry is something you need to get by the reins.
The previous very first woman just recently discussed the susceptible subject talked about in her approaching book, The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times, getting honest about the “monster” in her mind she works to bypass.
In a special sneak peak of her interview with ABC News’ Robin Roberts set to airNov 13, Michelle shared, “To put that quote in context, it remains in the chapter that’s called Decoding Fear since that beast that I’m discussing is my afraid mind.”
But the Becoming author understands a life without doubt is a harmful one, discussing that she feels worry has 2 sides.
“Fear, as I explore, is an important tool. It’s an important emotion because when used properly, it keeps us safe. It raises a warning bell that says, ‘Don’t go. Don’t do that. Don’t,'” she described. “But the other side of fear, if we don’t really understand it, is that fear can keep us stuck. And it’s that fearful mind of getting stuck and not being able to move outside of your comfort zone that I refer to as that I have to fight back against that.”
