We spend so much time running from fear.
Eating, drinking, watching TV, anything to avoid the discomfort.
We blame people and situations to avoid the perceived pain of personal responsibility.
What if you faced it? What if you allowed yourself to face the fear, to feel it?
What if you assumed unconditional accountability for everything in your life,
no excuses, no blaming, no defensiveness?
When it comes to fear, the only way out, is through it.
Fear is only a feeling. Who are you when you are afraid? A victim?
Someone powerless? Someone not good enough?
Whoever you are when you are in fear, it's just an identity that you have constructed. It's not real.
Beneath the fear is a treasure--the real you--confident, caring, and wise.
Who would you be without your fears? How would you feel? How would you act?
