I don't agree when he says that knowledge is one of the most important things to combat fear. In my case learning just makes me feel better because I think I've done something towards the wrong direction. But often there is fear although you probably know very well what you're dealing with.

By the way, I found the "one fear gets replaced by a bigger fear" theory very interesting. It's a very logical explanation but I never consciously thought about it.

In this case, even though it isn't fun and sometimes very painful, I'd suggest a brute-force approach. Try as many ways as possible and discard all the drafts & don't feel bad about it.
