I mean, FDR tried to get the whole country to remember this in the midst of war and economic depression: "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." Repetition truly is the law of learning - thanks for repeating this valuable lesson. Isn’t it interesting how hard, historically, it is for “us” to learn this lesson?

You know you've gotten there when your options and choices seem so absolutley, crystal, can't-miss-them clear. Did I just hear angels singing?!

I hope that others can learn to act from a place of control instead of fear. I've watched a lot of people over the course of my career not act or follow their dreams because of fear, and as much as it drives me nuts, I'm not them and I can't make their decisions for them. You're right, they have to make the decision to move on for themselves. Great post, Lance, really great. The word that comes to mind for me is perspective and yours is a well balanced one.
