Don't try to be unafraid. That is impossible. Rather, go ahead while being afraid. That is the entire secret for abolishing fear. The Supermind teaches us to have no self-concern at all. Whatever happens to you, act as though it happened to someone else.

“I love the PhilosophersNotes, but it's not because I don't have time to read. I subscribe to them because they're fantastic reminders of books that have had a profound impact on my life. Instead of having to reread them in their entirety, though, I can skim one of these inimitable reviews and get not just the heart of its message, but a boost of inspiration and the feeling that I'm not the only one who sees the critical importance of this sort of wisdom in the world.”
“I appreciate receiving these PhilosophersNotes filled with deep and powerful wisdom so very much. As a busy mother and lawyer, I never seem to have enough time in the day to satisfy my thirst for new wisdom and growth. So I particularly love giving your Note a quick read as part of my morning routine, and then contemplating the "Big Ideas" of the day (and how I can more deeply incorporate into my own life) while making breakfast for my son, driving to the office, riding in the elevator, etc. - whenever I have a quiet moment. You've made it so easy to do, and I can honestly say that this practice helps me stay centered and intentional throughout my day. Thank you so much for this precious gift! ”
"I am always compassionate, but sometimes in a very feminine, gentle way, nurturing and supportive, and sometimes in a very masculine way, ruthless and decisive. But I always have in my arsenal what is necessary to get the job done. I am totally integrated. There’s no need to become integrated; I am Integrated Feminine/Masculine Compassion. Another name for me is Big Heart." ~ Zen Master Dennis Genpo Merzel
