just wanted to share a quote I found helpful....sometimes I don't give myself enough credit for things and this reminded me that I should...we all should. I have a LOT of anxieties and to my (huge) surprise, I went skydiving! However I was feeling that I wasn't "present enough" with it and didn't really "conquer" any fears. But that can't be true, because I DID it! Anyhoo, this quote reminded me that we are always making progress....

Did I read that correctly Making Progress? You went skydiving. Had to read that over several times to make sure my eyes weren't playing tricks on me.

Boy, you don't take small steps, you take big leaps :) xx

yes! it was given to me as a gift and luckily I saw the email ahead of time. I initially said , I'm sorry I can't do it....but the fact that fear was the only thing stopping me bothered me so much. So I bought a book called "Transforming Fear" and ended up doing it. It was surreal!
