"Far better is it for you to..." - Quote by Guy Finley
Far better is it for you to go through one small thing that frightens you than to make a thousand plans for an imagined fearless day to come.

“We go through our lives in a continual dance of being filled with something that needs an answer, and then going out and finding that answer... only to find out that our answer wasn't quite the answer.”
“Each time that you don't know you are choosing, then of those choices you are not the chooser.”
“Believing that anxious thoughts and feelings can restore order to your life is like using a chain-saw to fold your laundry.”
More on Fear
“Keep walking, though there's no place to get to. Don't try to see through the distances. That's not for human beings. Move within, But don't move the way fear makes you move.”
“The worst part of success is, to me, adapting to it. It's scary.”
“There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance.”
More on Courage
“Ability is of little account without opportunity. I have very rarely met with two o'clock in the morning courage: I mean instantaneous courage.”
“It often requires more courage to dare to do right than to fear to do wrong.”
“Courage, like fear, is a habit. The more you do it, the more you do it, and this habit-of stepping up, of taking action-more than anything else, will move you in a different direction.”
