US - Jul 15, 2026 - Quote of the day by Mike Tyson: "Fear is like fire. If you learn to control it, you let it work for you. If you don't..." - the boxing legend's powerful lesson on controlling fear before it controls you - Mike Tyson viewed fear as a controllable force, much like fire. He believed controlled fear sharpens focus and aids preparation for challenges. Uncontrolled fear, however, leads to panic and poor decision-making. This perspective originated from his boxing mentor, Cus D'Amato, and shaped his career. Examining fear's signal, rather than hiding it, is key to its effective management.
