How Can I Keep Myself Alive?

I remember there was a route that I was trying on time ago when I was first started starting track climbing and I didn't have very good crack technique. So basically I was in a situation where going back wasn't possible or at least it was risky, so my only way down was up. When I finally did it, I reached the point where I should be safe, because I thought that I had the right thing to place and I didn’t. That's what it's like in the middle of that much uncertainty, fear, I found a way to be completely surrendered to the intelligence of my being," he said.
