quote on Fear (non conference approved)


"Fearlessness is about getting up one more time than we fall down. The more comfortable we are with the possibility of falling down, the less worried we are of what people will think if and when we do, the less judgmental of ourselves we are every time we make a mistake, the more fearless we will be, and the easier our journey will become."


"Beyond the major moments of fear in our lives, there are many other times we sacrifice our personal truth to go along, be approved of, or just plain be "nice." Because despite all our advances, there's still a huge premium on women being "accommodating" and "team players" who don't "rock the boat." "

Mare,

I especially like the first quote.  Thank you for sharing.  Many times I thought "eh, why bother?" but today, with many a 24 hours at a time, I can say that the journey of 1000 miles that began with just a single step has been worth it.

Thanks for sharing,
Maria
