Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body.
The man who is afraid to risk failure seldom has to face success.
It's way easier to stay in the comfort zone, especially when things are going good than to go out on a limb and take some risks. My philosophy is exactly the opposite: Sometimes it's risky not to take a risk.
If you want to conquer fear, don't sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.
I learned the importance of being nonjudgmental, taking what happens and trying to make it work.That's something you should apply to life.
Embrace bad news to learn where you need the most improvement.
We shouldn't be afraid to fail- if we are not failing we are not pushing.
The truth is few people “think” big and even fewer “play” big. Why? Because “big” often means big responsibilitie s, big hassles and big problems. They look at that “bigness” and shrink. They’re smaller than their problems. They back away from challenges. Ironically, they back themselves into the biggest problem of all ... being broke, or close to it.
Welcome the challenges. Look for the opportunities in every situation to learn and grow in wisdom.
You are here to experience life, not to escape from it.
You can’t embrace your whole life if you’re shut down.
I've learned that the more people embrace their disadvantages, the less disadvantaged they become!
You must not only learn to live with tension, you must seek it out. You must learn to thrive on stress.
Don't let fear rule your life. Live one day at a time, and never be afraid.
Few places in this world are more dangerous than home. Fear not, therefore, to try the mountain passes. They will kill care, save you from deadly apathy, set you free, and call forth every faculty into vigorous, enthusiastic action.
We pay a heavy price for our fear of failure. It is a powerful obstacle to growth. It assures the progressive narrowing of the personality and prevents exploration and experimentation. There is no learning without some difficulty and fumbling. If you want to keep on learning, you must keep on risking failure-all your life.
Get busy livin' or get busy dyin'.
Often we find our own destiny on the same roads that we have been avoiding.
"...All events are blessings given to us to learn from and therefore we should be grateful for the opportunity to grow and evolve into our best selves."
Give thanks for all that shows up in your life including the stuff that you perceive to be negative, the things that you wish wouldn't have happened. Don't take anything forgranted.
If you have a big challenge today, that just means you have a big destiny.
You must learn to stop thinking in terms of beginnings and endings, successes and failures, and begin to treat everything in your life as a learning experience instead of a proving one.
Live your life with love and bravery and you shall lead a life uncommon.
Be glad in the Lord and receive willingly from His Hand all that he designs for my holiness - both painful and pleasant.
Instead of being afraid of the challenge and failure, be afraid of avoiding the challenge and doing nothing
