“Everything you want is on the other side of fear.â€â€• Jack Canfield
We get attached to the life with which we're comfortable, and don't dare risk what we have for something that would be worthwhile, but we feel we can't achieve it.
I don't know that "who dares, wins" is necessarily right, but I guess if you don't dare, you definitely won't succeed.

I love that quote Mona. I also think that the more we dare, even if it doesn't work out, we just make another choice - we end up moving forward and having adventures even if things don't work out 100 percent

Fear - what a horrible foe. Something I fight with everyday. Fear seems to lurk around when I'm being creative, and whispers such lies. I often want to punch it in the nose!

Is it okay to state our beliefs for positivity and happiness out loud to the Universe?

Chel, you know, I've learned to use my fear as a measurement of adventure. Usually, I only have it if I'm on the right track, and really getting to use my creative forces. Fear doesn't try to stop us from doing something that doesn't matter It wants to keep us in the comfort zone. So if you're feeling that fear, you are very likely on the right track LOL!

Is it okay to state our beliefs for positivity and happiness out loud to the Universe? It's even better than okay When we set an intention, dormant forces rush to meet us Life (The Universe) love activity, so responds to our intentions. So ya, state it loud, state it proud

"It is not what we choose that matters; our power to influence an outcome lies in our reasons for making a certain choice." ~ Caroline Myss
Are we making a decision based on fear or trust? If we cannot trust that we have within us the power to handle any mistake, we'll make choices based on fear; choices we "think" give us a guarantee of a safe outcome.
There will never be a "perfect choice." But we'll always have an inner sufficiency that allows us to remedy any mistake, and move forward from where we are. xoxoxo Deanna

“Becoming conscious of your self, aware of who you are and what you can and cannot do, is one of the important tasks of spiritual maturity and the hero’s journey.†~ Caroline Myss – Invisible Acts of Power
How often are we really aware of who we are? How often do we say "I'm an unlimited being in a body," no matter what we're facing?
The task of honoring ourselves is often the most difficult task we'll face on our hero's journey. To love the package that we call "ME" makes other seemingly difficult tasks seem easy! XOXOXO Deanna
