Kirsten BeyerPeople do incredibly stupid things when they are frightened
About This Quote
A great quote from a great guy. The only way to feel happy in life is to take the time to realize what you are afraid of. Fear can do some pretty horrible things. It can cause us to do unrealistic things that we never would have done when we were in our bright, confident mindset.
We often do stupid things when we are scared or when someone scares us. But fear doesn’t last forever. Eventually, you will learn to recognize it for what it is and you will learn how to cope with it in a way that doesn’t take away the joy in your life.
