Divorce - Words of Wisdom - Courage

QUOTE:
"Courage leads to heaven; fear leads to death."
- Seneca (Seneca the Elder)

INSPIRATION:
Courage gives you wings and fear drags you down. Life will always hold challenges that will tap into your internal sources only as you have the courage to take risks and realize that not everything is safe will you have the wings to soar. If you allow fear and the “what ifs” to control you then you are immobilized and paralyzed and even though you are not physically dead, you will become emotionally dead. Fear has a way of destroying whoever it has control of. It is your responsibility to fight it and win. I am counting on you to win!

ACTION:
What fear is holding you back? Name it and then do something that has helped me. I stand in front of a mirror and yell at that fear to leave me and that it has no power over me. Something about doing it in front of a mirror empowers me, not sure why but I just know it works. I do this also when I am crying - I talk to the mirror asking why I am crying and what is the purpose and what am I getting out of these tears. Somehow it gives you a totally different outlook when you do this little exercise.
