I should never have watched Jaws as a kid--sharks terrify me! Not sharks in aquariums, but the idea of meeting one out in the ocean.
Other than sharks, I think I'm most afraid of losing someone I love or failing at something important. Most of the big changes I've made throughout adulthood are things I just had to close my eyes and leap for--if I think too long about it, I'll talk myself out of trying. (They've all been good decisions and right for me, but I have to commit quickly or I'll let my fear win out and won't go through with it.)
