Bravery is not the absence of fear 🌪. It's feeling the fear, the doubt, the insecurity, and deciding that something else is more important.

Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway

It doesn't work like a check-list: You can't check each item off, get to be happy and old for a couple of decades, then you die. Problems don’t go away, they change and evolve. And accepting life's imperfection is hard because it forces us to accept that we have to live with things we don’t like.

Life is progress, not perfection

"You can only fix your own imperfections and not the imperfections of others. So you may as well get to work on them."

In any venture, failure is required to make progress. Without failure, there is no progress and without progress, there is no happiness.

Progress and happiness

Blaming the world for your problems is the easy way out. It gives you short-term relief, you lie in your imagined victimhood, but ultimately it implies that you are incapable of controlling your own fate.

Taking responsibility

We all want to know how to be happy, but we rarely consider the hidden costs of happiness. It is not free. And despite what Cover Girl or Tony Robbins or the Dalai Lama once told you, it's not always easy breezy either.
