Write 10 times: 'Fear is my friend. Fear is the energy to do my best in a new situation.' You don't have to believe it just write it.
Peter McWilliams
Learn to ask for what you want. The worst people can do is not give you what you ask for which is precisely where you were before you asked.
Peter McWilliams
We can consciously end our life almost anytime we choose. This ability is an endowment, like laughing and blushing, given to no other animal... in any given moment, by not exercising the option of suicide, we are choosing to live
Peter McWilliams
