Fear vs. Courage

As actor Glen Ford once said, “If you do not the thing you fear, the fear controls your life.”

When you confront your fears and move toward what you are afraid of, your fears diminish while at the same time, your self-esteem and self-confidence increases.

The most important kind of courage is the courage to begin, to launch, to step out in faith. This is the courage to try something new or different, to move out of your comfort zone, with no guarantee of success.

With a commitment to acquire the habit of courage you will eventually reach the point where your fears no longer play a major role in your decision making.

You need to have self-discipline to respond positively and constructively in the face of discovery.


Mignon McLaughlin, The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960 wrote: “Courage can't see around corners, but goes around them anyway.”

You need self-discipline to keep your thoughts on your goals and dreams and keep them –off – of your doubts and fears.


Successful people are those who visualize the kind of success they want in advance. Prior to a new experience the successful person visualizes a successful positive event. The subconscious is like a computer so be sure to input great information, positive pictures and make choices so your subconscious computer output is positive to reflect a great life experience.


You are What You Can Be.


Ambrose Redmoon said: “Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear. “


Courage is the power to let go of the familiar. ~Raymond Lindquist

Dare to dream - and make those dreams into your reality!
