Motivational Quote - All problems become smaller if you don’t dodge them, but confront them.  Touch a thistle timidly, and it pricks you; grasp it boldly and its spines crumble.
SparkPeople Translation
Your worst fears are usually the ones that never happen. Unfortunately, they’re also the ones that keep you from trusting yourself and your abilities. Doesn’t it seem silly to give up in the face of something that may be no more real than the fairy tale troll that lives under the bridge? If you approach a possible roadblock with hesitation, it might resist and break your resolve. But if you step forward with confidence, you can climb that wall, even one inch at a time, and pull yourself over the top. Confidence is what it’s all about. Facing problems builds it, and lets you know that you can take on anything that comes along. The unknown monster under the bed is always scarier than the dust bunny reality.
