This phrase is a motto of mine. It means proceeding with something even if you are scared. The "it" can refer to a situation or an action.

Off the top of my head, I would say 'id fac ut timens' - do it while fearing - but perhaps you will get lucky and zlevad will give you a better answer. My grammar is very rusty and the 'afraid' part presents problems, as it is not grammatically correct in English. Afraid is an adjective and should not modify a verb in this manner. You need to twist the phrase around a bit to get a grammatically correct version in Latin.

Do it afraid? Be careful would make more sense..
