Other people’s judgments

Other people’s judgments

Unfounded fears

Unfounded fears

We all get afraid sometimes. It’s not about not being afraid, but what you do when you feel that way.

In the face of the mind's endless stream of doubts, believe in yourself.

Believe in your capacity to succeed. Believe that your relationships are worth the effort. Believe that people make mistakes on their way to greatness. Believe that people can be foolish and intelligent, selfish and generous, and stressed and happy all at once.
