The key to your future is on the table, grab it up.
Don't let fear of something new stand in your way, at one time crawling across the floor was something frighteningly new, you survived that, you will survive this.
When I left behind my first career, and moved forward into uncertainty, Sweet Bear gave me a card that simply said, "Jump and the Net Will Appear." It was on the wall over my desk at home for years, it reminded me to go boldly into the future.
Be bold. You are Brave. You are Strong. You can Do This.
The wrinkles, grey hairs, and scars are the proof a life lived. Be proud of them, be glad that you lived long enough to see them.
Breathe deeply, inhale the essence of life.
Thank the world that you have this day.

Good advice. I have always said that a new fear will eventually become a piece of your familiar woven life quilt.
ReplyDeleteNovelty is both terrifying and exciting. I should think about the differences between the two.
DeleteAngus' tales of kindness were good to read.
ReplyDeleteHe finds lots of great ideas.
DeleteGusto!
ReplyDeleteThere is a fine line between foolhardy and brave.
DeleteMost people don't like, and cannot handle, change. But when you think of the alternative, living a life where nothing changes? I vote change.
ReplyDeleteTake a leap.
Life without change, is boring.
DeleteI like that saying..."Jump and The Net Will Appear". Your partner is not just a wicked hamster but he is wise one too.
ReplyDeleteHe has been very good for me.
DeleteHe certainly is... 😉
DeleteI'm feeling a bit too tired to do any of this right now.
ReplyDeleteRest and smile.
DeleteThanks for the lift!
ReplyDeleteWe all need a little positive in our weeks.
DeleteGetting out of a comfort zone can open up a whole new world.
ReplyDeleteDo something everyday that terrifies you.
DeleteThanks to you and to Angus for that link to the Kevin Kelly essay. Good thoughts.
