"Do not take counsel of your fears."

"Although this might seem like a repeat of the "do not fear failure" maxim,
it's vastly different in meaning and context.  ...

In the business community, it's fundamentally imperative that management not 
run a business based on fear and intimidation.  In many cases, when employees 
are fearful of retribution by management, they refuse to ask questions or offer 
suggestions.  Very often they continue to do their job incorrectly instead of 
asking for help and they won't tell management when problems arise for fear of 
being blamed.  Employees must feel secure in their jobs before they can be 
outspoken about problems.  They should be part of the process, not afraid of 
the process.  Refer to Deming's point 8, Drive out Fear."
