Fear is good—sometimes.
I continually face new challenges
at work and in life. I have learned to
engage the challenge and to move boldly forward into the experience. Perfection is never the goal. The greatest MLB baseball batting average is
around .360 (Ty Cobb). That’s a hit once
every three at bats. The goal is to do
one’s best with the gifts and knowledge that one has to bring to a
challenge. Making a difference by
showing true care, lovingkindness, and even courage will usually be
enough. Perfection may come or it may
not happen. The goal is to step up to the plate and do one’s best. The only thing to fear is fear itself as
one wise person said many years ago. Good
luck and blessings to you and to me as life gives us great opportunities to live, to love, to
challenge, and to show courage in the midst of adversity. Amen.
