Live life fully while you’re here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You’re going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process. Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it. Don’t try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.

Flinch by Julien Smith, an amazing book about facing our fears
I just finished reading a great book by the awesome and say-it-as-it-is author who writes at http://inoveryourhead.net/. I just wanted to share some passages which I thought we’re really great and to encourage you to read it.
“in the world, a lion wakes up every morning not knowing what it’s going to eat. Every day, it finds food. The lion isn’t worried—it just does what it needs to do. Somewhere else, in a zoo, a caged lion sits around every day and waits for a zookeeper. The lion is comfortable. It gets to relax. It’s not worried much, either.
Both of these animals are lions. Only one is a king.”
“You can’t settle for reaching other people’s limits. You have to reach yours.”
“Straight-A student. Straight to college. Straight to work. Straight up the corporate ladder. Straight to the suburbs. Damn, you’ve been scared straight.”
“Is this you? Corridors lead you from bed, to breakfast, to your car, to work, and then home. You have a cubicle you come to every day. You go to the same lunch place. You watch the same shows. You like the same food. They could replace you with a small, predictable robot. And one day soon, they probably will.”
“You’re only as strong as your weakest moments. Learn to reinforce those weak spots before they cut you down.”
“You go on offense instead of defense. You can change the world again, instead of protecting yourself from it.”
“Fact: Those who face the flinch make a difference. The rest do not.”
“If you aren’t willing to sacrifice your comfort, you don’t have what it takes”
“can only judge from experience.”
“Everyone wants progress but very few want to lead. So a whole group waits for the first hand to go up before their hands go up, too. Suddenly, a vote goes from a unanimous NO to a unanimous YES. All it took was one voice of dissent—and suddenly, everything changed.”
“There are enough viewers. There are enough cheerleaders. There are enough coaches and enough commentators. What there isn’t enough of are players.”
These are just some of the brilliant concepts that Julien touches upon. I highly recommend reading through this book and taking it to hart.
The book is avaible for free on Amazon because as Julien say’s “A book so important we refuse to charge for it.”
Here is the link enjoy.
