Don't Take My Word For It.

LIMITATIONS

Until you spread your wings, you'll never know how far you can walk.

We have spent a good amount of time talking about worry.  One last word on that topic and then we move on.  Another way to keep your mind off of worry and focus on more positive out comes is to surround yourself with things that will keep you thinking positive.  I like to use quotes, I put them on cards and stick them in places I will see them often.
 
Here are a few of my favorites:
 
Great Sprits have always encountered violent opposition from inferior minds.
                                                               ~Albert Einstein
 
A ship in a harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for.
                                                                 ~John Shedd
 
There is no safety in numbers, or anything else.
                                                                 ~James Thurber
 
"The fearless are merely fearless.  Those who act in spite of their fear are truly brave."
                                                                ~ James A LaFond-Lewis
 
And because I have a twisted sense of humor I enjoy the products from a lovely company called  Demotivation.  You can find their products at http://despire.com
 
Here are a few examples of their work, though I highly suggest you visit their extraordinarily entertaining web site.
 
 
 
 
above: It Could Be that the Purpose of Your life is Only to Serve as a Warning to Others.
 
The quotation above by the penguins is also on a poster from Demotivation.
