Go out and get busy

Inaction breeds doubt and fear.

Action breeds confidence and courage.

If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it.

Go out and get busy.

 ---  Dale Carnegie (1888-1955)


I like Dale Carnegie's works and his quote here is true to my heart!

When I am in doubt and are fearful of something, I just sit still and do nothing. 

When we act on something, we breed confidence and gain courage!

So, sometime, "just do it" is the way to make a positive turn in life!

Learning how to do things

I am always doing that which I cannot do,

in order that I may learn how to do it.

--- Pablo Picasso

Flees forward in the midst of new things

"A man of courage flees forward in the midst of new things."

--- Jacques Maritain

Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.    --  Dale Carnegie (1888-1955)

Have made some difference ...

I think the purpose of life is to be useful,
to be responsible,
to be honorable,
to be compassionate. 

It is, after all, to matter:
to count,
to stand for something,
to have made some difference that you lived at all.

-- Leo C. Rosten (1908-1977) American Writer

It takes courage to break the rules!

In life, breaking rules required courage!


When you have ideas that challenges the conventional way of doing things, critics will come out to discredit you!


They will ridicule and belittle your ideas and make your ideas not creditable.


Yet, if you see what others don't see, you will have self-confidence and inner strength to ignore critics and pursue your vision.


Critics are people who are comfortable with the status quo and afraid of the changes.


Changes that your ideas bring about make them feel threaten.


Hence, expect to be criticized when you break the rules.


Don't take it personally, as they are attacking ideas that make them feel uneasy and not you!


Being the carriage for the ideas, you will feel hurt in person. That is also your own view, as they will attack anyone who bring the ideas to their knowledge, you are just treated as a carriage, not a person!


Dexterine Ho

Against all odds

When you get in a tight place and everything goes against you,

till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer,

never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.


-- Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896)

Courage

Most of our obstacles would melt away if,

instead of cowering before them,

we should make up our minds to walk boldly through them.


-- Orison Swett Marden (1850-1924)

Courage and tolerance

The test of courage comes when we are in the minority.

The test of tolerance comes when we are in the majority.


-- Ralph W. Sockman (1889-1970)
