I took this picture on my third parachute jump while I served the German Airborne Infantry. I used to be afraid of heights, so this was literally the biggest jump in my life. It took me a while to realize it, but this jump changed me. The military did. It is there that I’ve learned the power of fear: It can be a great asset in life - but only if you control your fear and don’t allow it to control you. Let it be your consultant, not your boss - and you’ll gain a wealth of strength.
