Facing your fears robs them of their power.
Being a songwriter or a painter you're definitely facing your fears. You're facing your fears because you're speaking your truth; you're speaking from your heart. That's something that's not easy to do, you set yourself up for all sorts of criticism or vulnerability but that's why we do it.
For me, what Macbeth is about is people who cannot face their fears and pain and instead of facing them and going beyond, they just run away and they try to cover this with power and violence, but it doesn't work.
Writing for me is an ongoing practice of facing and countering fears. And so, in that sense, I have always been responding to phobias. I am often most surprised by the writing that comes from facing fears that strike closest to home, poems that explore internalized phobias about gender identity, sexuality, and the body, poems that struggle with a question like do I deserve love?
I'm a big believer in living out your dreams and facing your fears.
Just remember, you can do anything you set your mind to, but it takes action, perseverance, and facing your fears.
Live with your lips pressed against your fears, kissing your fears, neither pulling back nor aggressively violating them.
What do you think this very difficult situation will push? Especially in the hearts of those who are facing the starvation, facing the unemployment, facing this siege, facing the tragedy of their families - the poverty of their families. Some of them, they didn't find food to eat. What do you expect from them? In spite of death, our people are still patient. But patience has limits.
Run towards your fears. Embrace them. On the other side of your greatest fears lives your greatest life.
Being alone for a woman is probably much more scary than for a man. I'm all for getting over our fears by facing them head-on.
Trust that The Uni-verse knows your bills, knows you need to eat and knows your heart much better than even you do, so keep facing your fears and limiting beliefs daily.
It's okay to have fear - we're all human; it happens - but in facing your fears, you can really open yourself up to things you never thought possible.
I have a huge fear of birds, but I truly believe in facing your fears head-on, so, I now have two sparrows tattooed on the back of my arms.
Don't let your fears become boxes that enclose you. Open them out, feel them and turn them into the greatest courage you are capable of. I promise you, nothing will go wrong. But if you live by your fears, everything that can possibly go wrong will go wrong and you won't even have done the 'Funky Chicken'.
The fears that assault us are mostly simple anxieties about social skills, about intimacy, about likeableness, or about performance. We need not give emotional food or charge to these fears or become attached to them. We don’t even have to shame ourselves for having these fears. Simply ask your fears, “What are you trying to teach me?” Some say that FEAR is merely an acronym for “False Evidence Appearing Real.” From Everything Belongs, p. 143
As a mom, the minute your baby is born, you all of a sudden have these fears. People always say, 'Don't let your fears get you.' But for me, my fears educated me.
You've got to get your head right about ageing. Taking care of diet and exercise and facing your fears about growing older will lead you into a happier place emotionally and mentally. You feel like you have a choice.
