October Thoughts to Inspire

Ah, yes. October, when fall comes bursting in showing us how beautiful things can be when you let them go. October is also the month of Halloween preparation, whether you have fun with the costumes and decorations, or you binge watch horror movies. I guess to me fall is kind of about fear. Fear of letting go, and fear of what lurks behind the next door. So in the October Thoughts to Inspire I am addressing fear, and trying to conquer those fears.

What you are afraid to do is a clear indication of the next thing you need to do.-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do.

Showing off is the fool’s idea of glory.

I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times-Bruce Lee

I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear. – Nelson Mandela

I hope the October Thoughts to Inspire did just that…inspired you to take on your fears, and gain the courage it takes to triumph over them.
