To quote a climber in Oz I worked with

 

"Concentrate on what your doing -Not where your doing it...."

 

It has served me well. The day I have no fear is the day i leave the industry

My biggest fear as a young tree climber was that I would get too old to climb trees, which I love. And, therefore, would have to get a real job! (suit, tie, you know, that kind of rubbish) Quite frankly, I still worry about that once in awhile.

to be honest i get more worried now more than when i first started.

When i was young i was swinging around without a care, now i think about what could go wrong more although i work for myself now so thats probably a factor.
