I've been impressed with past experiences in confronting my fears. I have a fear of heights, for example, but only when there's a ledge and nothing to hold on to. So (with a great deal of caution)I take advantage of opportunities to get close to the edge of a roof, or canyon, whatever might come up. It's absolutely terrifying, but for some time afterwards, I feel a sense of strength or empowerment.

I have another personal challenge coming up soon of a different nature, but wanted to know what any of you ahve done along these lines, to help tackle personal obstacles.
