When climbing a mountain, you get further away from earth and closer to yourself.
Fear of change is like standing under a hot shower and knowing the moment you’ll turn it off you’ll be freezing cold.

George MacDonald Quotes
It is by loving and not by being loved that one can come nearest to the soul of another.
There is no harm in being afraid. The only harm is in doing what fear tells you. Fear is not your master! Laugh in his face and he will run away.
George MacDonald (1824-1905) was a Scottish author, poet, and Christian minister. His writings covered a variety of literary themes from fantasy to theological. He was also a mentor for writer Lewis Carroll.
Brian Tracy Quotes
Set peace of mind as your highest goal, and organize your life around it.
It is not failure itself that holds you back; it is the fear of failure that paralyzes you.
Living with Patience
From James 5:11: “Indeed we call blessed those who showed endurance. You have heard of the endurance of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, how the Lord is compassionate and merciful.
Totally unexpected, overwhelming
Lingering cracks appearing along life’s road
Tripping, stumbling, and finally crashing down
Shattering confidence, from life’s heavy load
Floundering, drowning . . . caught in river’s rapids
Endlessly swimming, lost at pool’s deepest end
Feet never finding firm ground, dour fear arrives
Replacing life’s daylight with night at each bend
Life’s turbulence teaches us lasting patience
With the Lord, with ourselves, and with life’s curve balls
Fumbling life’s slippery game ball once again
God’s love sends patience after every fall
Endurance of Job, life’s journey shall require
Living with patience, frees us from each briar
From Galatians 5:22-25: “By contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against such things. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live by the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit.”
Martin Luther King, Jr. Quote
Courage faces fear and thereby masters it. Cowardice represses fear and is thereby mastered by it.
From Mark 5:35-36: “While He was still speaking, some people came from the leader’s house to say, ‘Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the teacher any further?’ But overhearing what they said, Jesus said to the leader of the synagogue, ‘Do not fear, only believe.'”

You can gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, “I lived through his horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.” You must do the things you think you cannot do.
From Psalm 27:1: “The Lord is my light and my Salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?”

Earthly fears are no fears at all. Answer the big question of eternity, and the little questions of life fall into perspective.
From 1 Corinthians 4:6: “I have applied all this to Apollos and myself for your benefit, brothers and sisters, so that you may learn through us the meaning of the saying, ‘Nothing beyond what is written,’ so that none of you will be puffed up in favor of one against another.”
