“If your nerve deny you go above your nerve”

Simplified Meaning:
When you're too scared to do something, push yourself beyond that fear. Imagine you have stage fright and you have to give a speech in front of a crowd. Your nervousness is telling you to avoid it, but if you push through and give the speech anyway, you're going above your nerves. Like when athletes feel pressure but still compete, they often achieve great things because they don't let fear stop them. By challenging yourself in such moments, you grow stronger and more confident. It’s about not letting fear control your actions but showing bravery to reach your goals. Trying this approach can help you face difficult situations and improve over time.
