"自分が知っていると思っていることだけを恐れることができる"
— Jiddu Krishnamurti

Simplified Meaning:
When we are scared of something, it's usually because our mind is filling in details and creating an idea of what could happen. Sometimes, we assume we know all about a situation or a person, and that makes us worried. For example, if you're scared to start a new job, it might be because you're imagining all the things that might go wrong, even though they haven't happened yet. Our brains often make these guesses based on past experiences or stories we've heard, not on actual facts. If we take a step back and really look at what we know for sure, a lot of that fear might go away. This means when we're feeling afraid, it can help to challenge what we think we know and focus on the real, present facts instead.
