I got this thread idea from a movie I watched, called "Elle". Now, Elle is an intern at a music agency. She has wanted to sing her entire life, but after her parents' death in a plane crash while they were flying to Berkeley to attend her music audition, she gives up on her dream because of doubt. Doubt that she can really sing, and doubt that she could be good enough to get into Berkeley Music School. She writes a song called "Anything Is Possible" and one of the lyrics is "Doubt is only fear of the unknown, and being alone."
So my question is, what is doubt, actually? Is it really just fear of the unknown events in our future? Or is it simply a lack of belief that we CAN be good enough to do whatever we put our minds to?
By the way, in the movie, Elle dares to do another audition at Berkeley, and gets accepted into their school. She is told by her boyfriend, to "just believe in yourself." And if we believe in ourselves, does doubt still exist for us? Or does it get squashed? lol
