“Fear of Failure? Follow Your Talent.”
“I think we all have a little voice inside us that will guide us. It may be God, I don’t know. But I think that if we shut out all the noise and clutter from our lives and listen to that voice, it will tell us the right thing to do.” (Christopher Reeve)
“The mystery; the essence of all life is not separate from the silent openness of simple listening.” (Toni Packer)
“Remember that the fear of failure is the most paralyzing of all human emotions. The fear of failure stops us from trying, from daring, from succeeding. It must be confronted. Don’t grow old saying, ‘I wish I had. I should have. Why didn’t I?’ Failure is not to be dreaded, but to confront, reject, and overcome.” (Mark Shields)
“Everyone has talent. What is rare is the courage to follow the talent to the dark place where it leads.” (Erica Jong)
