Is fear holding you back?

Is fear holding you back in various areas of your life? How many types of opportunities have you passed up because of fear? One afternoon I looked up quotes on fear (trying to examine and eliminate my own fears)...and came up with these quotes that spoke to me:

"Only when we are no longer afraid to we begin to live."
- Dorothy Thompson

"Don' be afraid to go out on a limb. That's where the fruit is."
- H. Jackson Browne

"Fear is only as deep as the mind allows."
- Japanese proverb

"Feel the fear and do it anyway."
- Susan Jeffers

"Fear breeds fear."
- Byron Janis

"Worry gives a small thing a big shadow."
- Swedish proverb

" You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you think you cannot do."
- Eleanor Roosevelt

Examine your fears. Where are they holding you back?

Love or Fear?

Fear is only as deep as the mind allows.
- Japanese proverb

Ponder this. Our actions are motivated by either love or fear. Love is fantastic, but let's focus on fear. Fear can freeze our dreams and delay goals. You know, not that fear with real physical danger involved...I mean the imagined fear of doing a task outside your comfort zone. I want to encourage you to just plow ahead and do it! You will learn and grow from your experience.

You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you think you cannot do.
- Eleanor Roosevelt

Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live.
- Dorothy Thompson
