- We never make our fears prove themselves, but instead ourselves prove their dread with our own fearful reactions that make us run away from what is feared before we even look upon its face.
- Fear's power is that it uses the unseen contents of our own consciousness to twist & transform the unknown of what lies just ahead into something known to be dreaded in the now.
- Fear is the dark & imaginary distance between the coming possibility of an imagined challenge & the actual arrival of whatever that condition may be that our life then requires to resolve.
- Anxiously seeking to find some way to protect ourselves from the fear of something that may be coming our way is to punish ourselves in the present moment in the hope of avoiding it later!
- Rather than allowing our fears to find excuses for why we should walk away from what challenges us, we must choose instead to see that there can never be a good excuse for living with fear.
