Best Fear Quotes by Brian GermainFeel free to share these thoughts fearlessly, but please leave the attribution. Thank you. 
"Most people do safe things
dangerously to get a rush. I prefer to do dangerous things safely." "When we transform our fears
into our concerns, we flow in a river of solutions." "Happiness will always be the
best defense against fear." "The pursuit of mastery within
the realm of risk is where we stoke the fire of the human spirit." "A life with too much risk is
often too short, but a life without risk is no life at all." "Life is fear versus trust. Fear
brings us less of what we hate and none of what we love. Trust brings us some
of what we hate and everything that we love!" "One cannot simultaneously
prepare for the worst case scenario and the best case scenario." "Abbreviated Owner's Manual for
the mind: If you are not enjoying the thoughts that are in your head, change
them, before they change you. You are what you think." "Fear is an alarm, not a
defense. Alarms alone don't save lives; clear-headed choices do." "Fearless conviction to a good idea
is the way of genius." "Invest in happiness. It pays bigger
returns than fear." "Do not be afraid of success if you
want to experience it." "Fear is like a good friend who
chooses a path that you would not choose to walk. You do not judge them. You do
not join them. You just love them and go your own way." "Whatever life hands you, there is a
better way to see it than the way you see things when you first look. Your fear
has shown up because you are thinking about the negative possibilities that you
saw in your first glance at the situation. When you are on the lookout for how
things are going to get better, you are more likely to find success." "The process of transcending fear is
the business of happiness itself." "I love humans, even when we are
scared and selfish, we are able to shake it off and do the right thing. The
amount of love that we radiate into the universe is greater than the amount of
fear. The best part is, the love-level is still climbing." "Fear limits the expansion of the
human heart, and the degree to which its intentions are carried out. I am
therefore against it." "What if everything was going to be
ok? What would that look like? Are you brave enough to think in that direction
until it is reality?" ‘Until you have the courage to let
yourself surrender to the brave task of envisioning the story of things going
well, you are destined to walk another path. The body cannot go where the mind
has not gone first." "When you remember how lovable the
human species can be, you will stop fearing us and start believing in us." "You can let go of the fear that you
are the only one who freaks out from time to time." "Surrendering to thinking something
other than the valid reasons to worry; "The process of relaxing is the
process of rejoining with the best version of you, and all the good that it
entails. Every deep breath is sacred. Every grin is a star being born." "Love always eventually triumphs over
fear, although sometimes you have to be a little patient. The worse anything
gets, the greater the pull in the other direction. It is the physics of the
universe. Things eventually get better." "If you can’t see how ridiculous you
look when you are afraid, you cannot step out of the experience. If, however,
you realize that you were just thinking in the wrong direction, you will just
laugh and look the other way." "All you need to do in order to shed
your fear is start looking for the way, and never look back. Flip your fear
upside down, laugh at it, love it to death, and do what the specific distaste
suggests in terms of action for improvement."
"Fear is just a poke that points you
in the direction you want to go. It is only when we poke back and grab hold of
it that things get ugly." "If our goal is to be happy, then
fear is clearly counter to that goal, because it makes us feel lousy. Fear is
the exact opposite of happiness." "I love witnessing people acting
heroically, despite their fear. They see the big picture, act with their
hearts, and ignore their previous programming. This is called doing the right
thing. It is when humanity shows its true nature." "Getting your panties in a bunchie is
not the way to get you where you want to go. That comes from having a good time
along the way." "I choose to focus on all the good
things that humanity has achieved throughout our journey on this earth, and so
I do not fear for our future." "When we are alone, we are filled
with fear of commitment. When we enjoy being alone, we don’t
worry about commitment. "Fear is the very bottom of the
emotional scale. It is the sub-basement of the soul. Fortunately, Love is an
elevator that goes all the way to the top floor." "Money is just another reflection of
the universal battle between love and fear. We fear losing whatever we love." "If you are afraid to be yourself,
you can’t sell anybody anything, because you are nobody." "A sigh of relief is the sound of
things getting better."
"If you are less afraid of running
out of money than you are excited about being successful, you are on your way." "When your fear of love is set aside,
you are your true self." "All over the world, ordinary people are
choosing fearless freedom over restriction. It is the quickening of humanities’
journey from doing what we are told is right, to feeling what is right and
acting upon that."
"Fearlessness is about leaving
behind the things that we don’t actually believe in favor of things that we
know in our hearts to be true. This is the dawning of the Age of Heroism, the
time of inner and outer freedom." "The process of working with your
fear is the most important work you are doing on this planet. It is how you
peel back the layers of culture and false beliefs about yourself, and allow
your inner groovy to spill forth." "Fear and hate are learned
aversions which are easily dissolved in a moment of loving focus. Humanity is
capable of total compassion because the desire to do good was there along. It
is just waiting for an opportunity to come out. We are all heroes waiting for
our moment in the sun." "You cannot let your reasons for
being freaked out freak you out. It just doesn't help." "It is in the moments when we are
lost in fear that we require a conjuring of the memory of what it is like to be
happy. Once we surrender to that process, "Daring to feel compassion and help
others is a sign of a personal commitment to fearlessness." "When you decide to let go of your
fear of what everybody else will think if you are happier than they are, you
will tap into the never-ending source of life energy called fearless joy. When
you shine that light on someone you deem worthy of your love, you earn your
keep in this world." "Fearless love is the highest
attainment of life on this planet or any other." "I want to help people become happier
and less limited by fear. That is my calling. I love how beautiful our species
can be when we are driven by their hearts, and so learning and sharing the many
ways out of fear is therefore my ultimate goal in life. " "When we think with our hearts, we
are fearless in a way that goes beyond the physical bravery of a mountain
climber, pilot or soldier. When we do what is right, despite our knowledge of
the dangers, we are being who we were meant to be." "Relaxing is the last thing on our minds when we are afraid, and yet this is always the first step toward mitigating risk." -Brian Stuart Germain "You know you can be more than this.
You have seen your true colors. All you need to do is look away from your fear,
and let your freak flag fly." "The way of fearlessness is the way
of true freedom." "Does anything feel better than
reexamining your fear and finding freedom within it?" "It is time to rise up out of the
fear and be the full self that your old self was too small to contain." "Fear is dangerous. No emotion
creates more stagnation when action is needed, and more action when a pause is
necessary. Worse, no emotion leads us further from love." "Humanity is faced with a choice. On
one hand we have fear, and on the other we have love. Each act is another
opportunity to show your inner beauty." "There are a great many reasons to
feel fear, and many of them are valid. The belief in the beneficiality of the
thoughts that fear leads us to is the only fallacy. Fear is not caution." "The problem comes when we conform
through fear, and act in a manner that is contrary to who you really are and
what you truly believe in. This is the root of much suffering in the world.
When you let yourself flow with the nature of your true self, you become you." "When faced with a big decision, fear
will always present an option that feels safer, but usually leads you away from
the right path. Even when a course correction is necessary, it is not your fear
that guides you accurately, it is your wisdom to know the way. Wisdom is not
born in fear, it is born in love." "Freedom from fear does not come from
external circumstances at all, but in a choice to allow the feeling of relief
regardless of the circumstances." "A society’s relationship to fear and
risk is what determines its overall success. A brave culture that strives for
all that is right will not dwell on the possible consequences to failure.
Instead, the brave culture in the pursuit of morality will focuses its
attention on the sole prospect of reaching for continuous improvement." "We are brave. It is who we are. To
act differently would be contrary to our true nature. When we act meekly, the
source of our pain is the comparison between who we really are and who we are
being. Nothing causes more suffering than knowing that you can be braver than
you are being." "You do not need to reach for what
you believe in. That is your right as a sentient being. You are free to choose
your way. But when you have had enough of the inner turmoil that comes along
with taking the cowardly path of blind conformance, you will realize that the
brave way is the only way. You’ve just got to be you." "Fear really is a gift. The backdrop
of distaste is the way in which we illuminate the truth. Repulsion always bears
the gift of the preferred." "In the hard times, we must not let
our fear of each other keep us from coming. We must have pot-luck suppers and
sing songs in the darkness. When we fearlessly open ourselves to our community,
we find everything you need. Stone Soup, baby." "Are the opinions of others more
important than your opinion of yourself?"
"Although most of us do not
believe that we are driven by fear of what others think, the vast majority are
in strict conformance with the norm. Someone is lying to themselves, and its
not the weirdoes." "Even one who has been driven by fear
their entire lives can make a choice to turn the corner and leave begin the old
habits of worry. It is just a shift in thought. We are always free to do
whatever makes the most sense." "It is not the altitude that gets a
skydiver to that feeling, it is their fearless surrender to joy." "Cheering up is the solution to all
fear." "The feeling of relief is always the
first step away from negative emotion and toward joy." "Surrendering to the process of
getting happier is always a heroic act, especially when you are surrounded by
people who are not currently happy." "Daring to be happy enough to annoy
the miserable folks is one of the healthiest goals in life." "Mood is the only thing that appears
to really matter in life." "If you are driven by fear, you will
always rendezvous with more things that
make you afraid." "Adventure challenges prepare us to
fearlessly stand up for things that we believe in." "Adventure People get used to
ignoring their fear and doing what needs to be done the right way. Risk is life
training" "In this brave next phase in human
evolution, the capacity for lovingkindness will be selected as the most
desirable of traits." "Loving compassion is the most heroic
pursuit that we will ever undertake." "Daring to remain happy in our hearts
as we help those who are suffering, this is bravery." "If you aren't afraid at times, you
aren't expanding." "Who are you when you forget your
fear?" "Doing something dangerous that does
not scare me is not true bravery. It is when I forge ahead despite my personal
panic alarms that makes me momentarily heroic." "Real love is the unconditional
experience of limitless compassion that comes as a result of focusing on the
most positive aspects of another person. As we give our undivided attention to
their beauty and brilliance, we magnify it, and they shine even brighter. This
is how fearless love can transcend all barriers." "Love, wherever it goes, leads to
more of itself." "It may be true that there is much to
fear, but if we fearlessly band together and help each other out, there is no
need to be afraid." "A deep slow breath followed by a
relief-filled smile seems to be the first step toward the hurtling of all
obstructions in life." "Love is the cause of both fear and
heroism. We fear losing what we love, while the fearless pursuit of love is
what makes us great." "Love is the cause of all authentic
bravery." "Until you have the courage to let
yourself surrender to the brave task of envisioning the story of things going
well, you are destined to walk another path. The body cannot go where the mind
has not gone first." "I think that all the world's fear
could easily be mitigated if each one of us would take fifteen minutes a day to
go sit on a rock in silence." "Fear is what happens when you stare
in a direction you didn't want to go anyway." "Loving life requires us to push into
the realms that provoke our fear, and when we focus on the joy of the process,
the lemon is always worth the squeeze." "When you remember that everything is
on it's way to better, you will take a deep breath, let go of your fear and
allow your inner smile to light the way to your inner truth." "Fear not, love really is the
answer."
"Love doesn't hurt. It is the
absence of love that hurts. When we focus on what we love and why we love it,
there is nothing but joy. " "It is most ironic that the fear of not being liked leads us away from
being our true selves, making us less likable." "Knowledge counters fear.
Knowing what you are doing is half the battle. Knowing yourself is the other
half." "Humanity seems bent on proving
bravery through physical means, when true grit is best demonstrated in the
pursuit of integrity and truth."
"Admitting that you are afraid
is the first step toward bravery." "Ideals require brave action to
take flight."
"Fear can lead to wisdom only when
we understand the danger that it is pointing out and move forward with
addressing that concern." "A forced smile in a time of
terror soon becomes a legitimate change of mood." "You are less a function of your
past as you are the brave dream of what you could be."
"Life provokes imbalance, which
is the source of fear. Striving for holistic balance on all axis is therefore
the secret to transcending all fear."
"If bravery in the pursuit of
love is crazy, then I am a lunatic." "There are two types of stress.
One builds you up, the other breaks you down. If you aren't smiling, stress is
kicking your ass." "Brave parents are great
parents, because if you don't let them risk, you don't let them
live."
"For every inch you move toward
expanding beyond your fears, you make quantum leaps in your journey toward
freedom and happiness."
"It is not about shedding fear
entirely, but stepping beyond your personal comfort zone, little by little. If
you manage to put your toes in the surf today, perhaps you can get in up to
your knees tomorrow."
You are allowed to be afraid. You are
not allowed to let fear stop you from doing the right thing. Bravery without awareness of the
risks is just innocence. Bravery following painful lessons is heroism. The best gift we can give our
children is a sense of adventure. When we shy away from danger, we fail to lead
the way to a full life.
Life is about teamwork. Without
transcending the fear of each other, we are bound to fail in the long run.
Responsible parents do not strive to
avoid risk entirely, but teach the ways to avoid danger while exploring the
world with a feverous passion for life.
The fear of change is what prevents
most improvement in this world. Without the risk of worse, there is no
better.
When fear points to limitations, it
lies. We are wide open to make the world a better place, and the fear of change
is the only thing standing in our way. Fixation on the current status rather
than future possibilities is the ultimate downfall of the fear mentality.
Freedom is a choice. Pull up the
anchor of your fear and let the winds of possibility carry you. Fear is just excitement without
breathing, a contraction of the body and soul, created by visions of what we do
not want. Improve your breathing, improve your vision, and watch your fear
dissolve before your eyes. Passion is how we stoke the fire of
human brilliance. Fear of judgment is how we put it out. Permanent fearlessness is a horizon
that we pursue but never attain, but the going is what produces the expansion
of life that we desire. Bravery despite fear is the creator of the expanded
version of you. When we fixate on negative
possibilities, we feel fear. When we fixate on positive possibilities, we feel
exhilaration. How we feel is always an indication of what we are giving our
attention to, and what we fixate on tends to become our experience. The universal characteristic of
happy, wise people is the fact that they choose to remember the lessons of
traumatic experiences and to forget the specifics of the experience. Fixation
on the unwanted past always draws us toward a recreation of the event, and
farther from benefiting from the learning that we have gleaned. Think where you
want to go. It is better to be punished for being
who you are than praised for being someone else. Fearlessly you! The magnitude of your fear is in
proportion to the desire you feel around that subject. When you know what you
don't want, you know what you want. Direct your attention to the desire, and
the fear will transform into inspiration. Kindness is the natural evolution of
fearlessness. There is no bravery without fear, but
when the desire is strong, the fear becomes weak. Inspiration is the source of
heroism. Life belongs to the intrepid, not
because they do not fail, but because they learn from it and move forward into
wisdom. The opposite of fear is love. When
love is first directed toward the self, the magnitude of affection available to
all others is infinite. If you are not willing to look like a
fool, you are not brave enough to be great. Fearless compassion is the natural
benefit to adventure challenge, because once we start the ball rolling in the
direction of true fearlessness in our lives, what we discover at the bottom of
the hill is lovingkindness for all. Fear is motivation, like a whip from
behind, while the joy of inspiration compels us forward out of shear pleasure
of motion ahead. Genuine inspiration is pure life fuel, the only sustainable
resource in the universe. Often people believe that I suggest
doing things that scare you despite your overwhelming fear. This is not exactly
my point, and such a path can lead to some very bad outcomes. What I support is
transforming how you feel about things that scare you, and then enjoying the
expanded territory afforded by your new perspective. Before we take on danger, fear is
wonderful guidance. It tells us when the light is green and when the light is
red. Once the kinetic energy is in full swing, on the other hand, fear offers
nothing but narrow-minded negativity and resistance, and it limits our access
to the graceful flow of skill that leads us to safety. The vast majority of adventure
enthusiasts are driven by the joy of life, rather than a fear of death. Their
sense of safety, on the whole, seems to be grounded in a profound trust in
their knowledge and skill of execution. Self-trust is both the consequence of
adventure, and the reason for things going well. Scaring ourselves back into the
present moment is the core benefit of all adventure experience. Danger is
forced enlightenment.
Heroism is to fear as fitness is to extinction.
Nature favors those driven by what is right, rather than by what feels
safest. Fear comes from a busy mind, orbiting around the unwanted. The silent mind cannot fear, because it orbits around nothing. The fear of greatness is what makes
us meek, and the fear of being meek is what makes us great. "There are many valid reasons to
feel negative emotion, but not one of them is worth focusing on for more than
fifteen seconds. If you can resolve the issue in that amount of time, great. If
not, get off the topic before you make a habit of the emotion. People steeped
negative emotion are not all that much fun to be around, even when they are
right." The balance of power of hope versus
fear is tipped by shifting our focus from negative truth to positive
possibilities.
When we are in the grip of fear, we
are more focused on our disbelief in the possibility of improvement than we are
the vision of how success might occur. Fear is just your indication that
your current heading or thought process leads away from where you actually want
to go. The fear of speaking one's truth is
the most insidious fear of all. Integrity is beautiful. I have found that fear is in
everything that I do, and just like anger, it works against the attainment of
everything that I love. You are a collection of your worst
fears and your most beautiful dreams. You need to confront both if you are to
become your highest self. We must never allow our fear of the
opinions of others sway us from acting with integrity. When we stand tall in
our ideals, the view is incredible. Life is the never-ending process of finding the sane balance between fearless freedom and neurotic paranoia. -Brian Stuart Germain Love is only experienced in its
fullest expression by the fearless and the forgiving. Love sometimes results in fear, but fear cannot lead us to love. Only by finding a way to cheer up and trust that everything is going to be ok are we granted the keys to heaven. -Brian Stuart Germain Fear most often leads to
irrationality. The more adverse the possibility, the more we tend to
overestimate the likelihood of it occurring. This is the reason why the human
race most often steers such a wide birth around risk, at the expense of the
possible rewards. We mistake the magnitude of the emotion for the likelihood of
actualization. Ironically, though self fulfilling prophesies of failure, we
usually prove ourselves right. Fear makes danger real. Open the doors to the real you that
you have been too afraid to divulge for fear of judgment. Only you decide your
worthiness. Only you can let it in. Wellness requires exercise. Exercise
hurts. Only the brave will choose to do what they know will hurt. Therefore,
the pursuit of wellness is always braver than laziness. Fear is contended with in two ways.
The first is through internal soothing processes, and the second is through
addressing the external conditions. If you are worried of a parachute
malfunction, you must check your gear. Reasonable steps toward safety make it
easier to feel better about danger. In the end, however, relief is always a
choice to relax into feeling better. Your heart, your choice. When the stress level remains at a
high level for a long period of time, we look for any excuse to run and hide,
reaching for their physiological balance. Although the motive may be a much
needed feeling of relief, the bottom line is, stress causes laziness. Business is no different from
skydiving. We pay our money, we take our chances, and we point our heads in the
direction of optimism. Fear is the enemy of all progress, and relaxing back
into hope is the only way forward. The state of fear is not one mindset
but three. The adrenalin gets interpreted based on the circumstances, and we
either feel anger, try to escape, or freeze in our tracks and loop our thoughts
over and over again. The quickest way out is to physically relax, and let go of
our thinking. The absence of thought is the beginning of something better.
When we are steeped in worry, it is
because we have disconnected from the feeling of happiness. When we fixate and
ruminate on the problem, there is no light at the end of the tunnel because we
are not in the same headspace as the solutions. Feeling better comes from
dropping the conversation about the problem, and giving our full attention to
the solution. We all freak out from time to time,
when we loop our thoughts that lead to a feeling of helplessness and doom. By
choosing to get off these trains of thought, and look for ideas that either
solve our problems or simply make us feel better, we can minimize the time
wasted in worry. We always have a choice about what we give our attention to,
and so we always choose how we feel. We know that stress kills. It kills
more than cells, it kills human cooperation. It breaks down communication
between individuals, who find themselves lost in the speed, and consequently
the love level drops. Unless love is in the house, we are simply not living the
good life. Few people are willing to admit that
they have fear. It is only the ones who realize it and take it head on that end
up taking the leap of expansion. Fear of danger is just the beginning. It
builds our skills of de-escalation so we may take on more consequential
matters, like the fear of each other. Practicing our ability to maintain
our center through engaging in adventure pursuits can cultivate our ability to
remain in our hearts when negative emotion begins to diminish us. The situation
may be different, but the skill of keeping it together remains the same.
Breathe out the fire, and to calmly look in the direction of the best possible
outcome. Explore what scares you, and you will
find that your territory is larger than you have been using thus far. Fearless
expansion into our gray zones is how we spread the light within ourselves. Fear is worrying about having enough
food to eat. The feeling of fear is always an
indication of where our focus is taking us. The more we fixate on the
possibilities that we do not want, the more we are moving in the direction of
the undesired experience, so fear is warranted. Fear is the signal from your
higher self saying: "go the other way with your thinking, before it's too
late!" There is no limit to how good this
can get when we leave fear behind. As our circle of loved ones grows,
our fear grows alongside our love. If love is to remain unlimited by fear, we
must surrender to fearless trust. True bravery always knows the reasons for
fear, but chooses to focus in the direction that is most beneficial despite the
risks. There is nothing more beautiful than
human compassion. When we fearlessly allow love to turn into action, we become
the people we came here to be. Love solves all. We have a job to do, and fear has
nothing to do with it. We must look into our hearts and find compassion. We
must look into the soil and bring forth food. We must look into the future and
see the improvement that our lives have been generating through our experience,
and know that it is coming. In business, the fear mentality often
results in management not listening to subordinates, or asking for suggestions
on how to reduce waste and promote growth. The janitor can be the key
perspective that makes or breaks a company. Wisdom can come from anywhere, and
the wise always keep their ears open for the next good idea. This is brave
leadership. There are plenty of bad endings in
our past to suggest contraction. It is the possibility of good endings in the
future that drives us to take the next step through fear. It is normal to experience emotional
reactions based on past experiences. That is called learning. If, however, we
want to experience something different from the past, we must accept that this
is a brand new situation. You must dare to consider the possibility that things
will unfold differently, and far better than before. Your ability to appraise the
situation is inversely proportional to the speed of that situation. Your gut
always tells you that something isn't right, but you need to be moving slowly
and with awareness if you are to make the necessary course corrections when
things are headed in a direction that might end badly. Slow down and keep
thinking your way to the best case scenario. Even the most painful of worries cannot stand in the face of a long walk in nature. Observe beauty, appreciate beauty, become beauty. -Brian Stuart Germain When you remember that everything
really is on it's way to better, you will take a deep breath, let go of your
struggle, and allow your outer smile to light the way to your inner truth.
The reasons for fear are mounting,
but the solutions are becoming more obvious every day. The worse it gets, the
clearer the path to improvement. When we are freaking out, the first
thing to go is our sense of humor. If you cannot laugh about this, it is time
to lighten up and let go of your intensity. Happiness results in both skill and
intelligence. On one end of the emotional spectrum
is fear, and on the other is love. Although we desire to be in a state of love,
the possibility of losing the object of our love will always bring us back to a
feeling to fear. That is why the skill of optimism is the key to happiness.
Either we cultivate this skill, or we spend much of our lives in fear. There is no greater high than to be
in the middle of danger and appreciating the beauty of your time and place. Zen
Adventure! Everything you desire requires
fearless focus in order to manifest. Distracting yourself from what is, and
clarifying your image of this new and improved reality is all you need to do.
Fear says: "Here is the risk of failure. Here are the odds of success
based on the past." Fearless conviction, on the other hand, only pays
attention to the dream itself, and ponders the vision solely for the joy of
it. Life is scary because we are afraid
that we will find ourselves cut off from the loving life force that sustains us.
Fortunately, this can never happen, simply because the source of our life force
is within us. You are creating you. Fear is a navigational guide, not a
destination. Notice it, make the change that makes you feel better, and let it go.
Joy is the destination. When you, the adventurer, step into
your zone of risk and skill, you are alive. Your moment is at hand, and your
fear will not stop you. You are intention in action, without resistance. It is
on. We can rise above overwhelming
helplessness. It begins with a softening deep breath and uplifting focus, and
ends with forward thinking action with the expectation of success. We become
hope in motion. Terrifying challenge is the grindstone that hones the point of our desire for the future. Although it hurts, it helps. -Brian Stuart Germain It you are afraid to speak your mind,
do not complain that your world is not what you prefer. Unwanted momentum is destined to
continue for those who are afraid to embrace silence. Relaxing into a feeling of complete safety, when appropriate, is how we prevent burnout. Allowing ourselves to feel safe all of the time is how we fall into dangerous complacency. -Brian Stuart Germain Love in action is both fearless and
beautiful. Awe is the opposite of stress. Slow
down and soak in the beauty. Just because it has not been done
this new way before does not mean that it is the wrong way to do it. Blind
conservatism is fear in disguise. Love and fear are born of the same
stuff. The degree to which things can get better is the degree to which we let ourselves be happy regardless of whether or not it gets better. -Brian Stuart Germain The best indication of intelligence
is the willingness to experiment.
When we stop worrying about what
others think of us and just go with what feels right, we radiate our most
brilliant light into the world. Nothing shines like authenticity.
When we see the depth of character within every stranger, and the pain they have endured, the veil of fear between us dissolves, and humanity takes a giant leap toward true peace. -Brian Stuart Germain Although happiness is the result of wisdom, it is not always the source of it. Fear is a teacher too. -Brian Stuart Germain The loss of hope is the
transformation from pilot to passenger. Consider the possibility that you can
make this beautiful too. The difference between caution and
fear is that caution increases safety while fear causes more danger and less
freedom.
You don't need to worry. It is going
to be alright as soon as you relax into the process of how it is going to be
alright.
The ability to keep your cool is what
separates you from the turkeys. It's either breathe big when you need it, or
gobble-gobble.
Whether you believe you create your
experience or you are a subject of circumstance, the next move is entirely up
to you. Breathe, think bravely, and thrive. If you are afraid to fail, you aren't
brave enough to be great. Adventure is less about the pursuit
of terrifying danger as it is about the pursuit of happiness.
If we take care of each other, we
don't need to fear each other.
Each step we take into the unknown
expands what we know of ourselves. The world is full of people who have
succeeded in not dying. Rarer are those who chose meaningful risk and walk away
with rewards that make life worth living.
Where fear and euphoria overlap is
the place called happiness.
Keeping it together when the poop
hits the propeller is partly about focus, partly about breathing, and partly
about finding a way to enjoy the ride.
The reason why we are here is not to
just take up space. It is not just to live long. It is to expand that which has
been before, and reach out for our dreams in childlike hopefulness. We cannot
let fear stop us from being who we really are.
Skydivers survive because we take
care of ourselves, and each other. Safety is the natural consequence of love.
Even in the darkest of times, all we
need to do is have Pot-Luck suppers and sing songs in the darkness. Loving each
other is the only light we need. Ego makes us brave, love makes us heroic.
