get busy

assorted fleurs from my new, little sunshiny, patch of annuals garden

Inaction breeds doubt & fear.
Action breeds confidence & courage.
If you want to conquer fear,
do not sit home and think about it.
Go out and get busy.

Dale Carnegie

Ya know there was a time, and not very long ago if someone said this to me I would have stuck my tongue out at them. It would have made me feel pissed off, followed instantly by more fear. But I'm here to tell you that it is true, without a doubt ...

get busy - it scares fear away
& brings happy a runnin'

uh huh !

  1. Well now I want to find something new for you to stick your tongue out at because that's just funny.

  3. For me the only busy that works is singing busy. And that works, AND HOW. Today was a perfect example. Spot-on post as usual. Somehow you and I live parallel lives... very cool.

    Oh. I also stuck out my tongue today. As part of teaching a particular vocal technique. Ferserious.

  4. It's true! I need a push however, like receiving a phone call to come in for substitute teaching - and that in itself calls for a big deep breath where teenagers are involved. However, at the end of the day, I've done well!
