But letting your fear take control, that is a different matter.  While you can’t stop fear, you can keep fear from ruining your chances of saving your marriage.  You can learn how to keep fear from running your life.

But then we do more.  I tell you exactly what you can do to make sure that your fear does not get in the way of your efforts to save your marriage.  I will teach you how to respond to your fears and what to do to keep the fear to a minimum.

You can’t stop the fear, but you can change your response.  If you change your response, you change the outcome.
