“According to Shakyamuni Buddha, it's normal for human beings to be anxious, because it's normal for human beings not to understand themselves. When you don't understand yourself, you're uncomfortable and scared. When you realize that you're anxious, Buddha's teaching is to practice being patient with it.” HumansRealizingHuman BeingsPracticeTeachingNormalPatientScaredUncomfortableAnxious Author:Reb Anderson
“Being scared is normal. My technique for erasing it is facing it. Be afraid and brave. Be nervous and courageous.

Know it's there. Know it's temporary. Face it to erase it.” IfsKnowsFirstsFeelingsFacesGoalMinutesSeriousHonorNormalAnxietyTestsBraveScaredTechniqueNervousReachingCourageousTemporaryEraseBeing ScaredReaching Goals Author:Chrisette Michele
