    Yes definitely. One example I have of that is when I was in university I dreamed of going to Japan for an exchange year. But I was scared of it being too expensive for me to be able to pay for it. This fear held me back for 3 years not doing it. Until I actually checked for the first time how much it would cost instead of just following the vague “oh it will be too expensive” mantra I had until then. And turned out that it wasn’t that expensive at all. So I postponed an incredible life-changing experience, for 3 years, just because I didn’t evaluate the factual basis of my fears.
