A great blog entry about fear

My best friend often sends me blogs from Craig Harper, a motivational speaker in Australia. 

This one I found very helpful and on point considering my post last week and our ensuing discussion.

 This blog has also spawned Cindy (my best friend) and my new motivational phrase: Suck it up, Princess! Works for us!

I love this paragraph:

"You're big now

It's your life right? Then you sort it out. You step up to the plate. You be totally responsible. You make the decisions. You take the chances. You do the work. You get uncomfortable. You face those fears. You learn what you need to. And stop looking for the approval and permission of others. You don't need it; you're big now. And if this all sounds like too much work or something you would rather place in the 'too hard' basket, then complain no more, lower your standards, downgrade your dreams a little and enjoy your carob."
