I love the following quote.  It is from a TNT; NBA commercial.  On the commercial it is spoken by the very best basketball players active in the playoffs right now.  It makes me think of the fear that we all experience when we are going into an important presentation that we have worked hard to obtain, prepared, and then it’s time to go to work.

“There are so many emotions at the end of the season.
And nobody likes to talk about it.
But one of them is fear.
Fear that you’ve come this far,
And it could all end.
The dream could die.
But me,
I like the fear.
It means I’m close.
It means I’m ready.”
