Be
There is healthy fear.
Fear that motivates.
Fear that stays our hand.
Fear that causes us to pause, reflect, rethink.
All fear is not bad.
Be fearful of a life wasted.
Be fearful of not living up to your potential.
Be fearful of what you won’t create when you let toxic fear keep you from healthy fear.
But more than Fear… Love.
Love the life you have.
Love the potential that exists inside.
Love the creative act.

How do I stay motivated? And how do I tell the difference between healthy fear and toxic fear.
One way to know is this:
Healthy fear should remind you to Love.
Toxic fear will result in shame.
