Thoughts About Fear

If you look into your own heart,
and you find nothing wrong there,
what is there to worry about?
What is there to fear?
Confucius

Life is an act of listening. In any given moment, you are either listening to the voice of fear (your ego) or the voice of love (your unconditioned self). Fear always leads to more fear. Learning to switch off the voice of fear is an art.

Robert Holden

*This man makes so much sense. I have read his books a couple of times and always pick up something new!

The biggest hurdle in the way of achievement is fear of failure.
Anurag Prakash Ray

Robert Holden Quotes About Happiness

The belief that happiness has to be deserved has led to centuries of pain, guilt, and deception. So firmly have we clung to this single, illusory belief that we've almost forgotten the real truth about happiness. So busy are we trying to deserve happiness that we no longer have much time for ideas such as: Happiness is natural, happiness is a birthright, happiness is free, happiness is a choice, happiness is within, and happiness is being. The moment you believe that happiness has to be deserved, you must toil forevermore.
ROBERT HOLDEN

I wonder where that thought originated. I had a long talk with my mom a few years ago about just this topic and she couldn't believe that I actually felt this way!  I'm still working on... undoing the damage!

Happiness Now!: Timeless Wisdom for Feeling Good FAST (9781401920395): Robert Holden: Books

I bought the book (Happiness Now) a few years ago after hearing about him on some TV show... the man was talking about "happiness" and is there anyone who really believes that they have enough?? I wanted more in my life! I have read the book a couple of times and then picked up the cd so that I could upload it to my Ipod. When I go for a walk, I will often choose his words to give me something to think about in the park. Good stuff! Just heard that he has a new radio show coming out later this month on Hay Radio! The man... is a genius! Plain and Simple. Love the first couple of chapters where he is talking about what doctors learn in school... It's not about people being happy... its about all the phobias. Hopefully someday, schools all across the nation will teach people how to cope with day to day living! No pills needed!

Today's Happy Quote:
Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.
