Rapid Review
One thing is certain: if a fear of failure keeps us from taking effective action, only then are we truly defeated. Cultivating a FEARLESS FONA MINDSET starts by rethinking our relationship to failure when it comes to the failed airway by overcoming our fear of it.
Is Fear Irrational?
there’s more to this famous speech
On March 4th, 1933, FDR uttered the immortal words, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” He wanted to lead the country out of the great depression, but to do that, he needed to name the enemy – ourselves. That nameless, unreasoning, and unjustified shape of fear paralyzes us and keeps us from turning failure into success. The remedy, FDR suggested, is to name our fear reason through it so that through this process, we understand the nature of our fears, seeing that perhaps we gave fear too much power over our ability to act. This is also a good place to start examining our fear of the failed airway so that we can learn to advance instead of remaining paralyzed by fear.
“Reason can wrestle and overthrow terror.” Euripides (Εὐριπίδης) c. 406 BC
Can we reason through our fear of the failed airway? Euripides thought so. What are we so afraid of that a change in attitude, a little preparation, and some confidence in our training can’t overcome?

and thinkDIFFERENTLY about the failed airway
Finally, when it comes to our relationship with the failed airway we should remember that a failed airway does not signal defeat. It is only an opportunity to identify a problem and apply a reasonable solution. FONA. In this case the only thing we have to fear is not acting.
