Many people say they fear failure

I’ve been talking with a friend about this recently. Many people say they fear failure. But actually, when it’s really looked into, the fear is more often of *success*. We know failure. We understand it. But success will bring change, the unknown, and push us out of our comfort zone. It’s easier to be where we are. As a result, people don’t take courses to learn new things. They don’t try new marketing ideas for their book or business. They don’t consider new ideas. They cling to what they have and plug along. Often they complain about where they are – but don’t really try changing.

Preening Peacock zoo mystery series

Happy Happy! I just found an awesome narrator for my Preening Peacock zoo mystery series! The narrator grew up in Puerto Rico just like my heroine, and I *love* her accent. I’ll listen to these myself over and over just to hear her talk ;). Here’s book one in the series, free of course.

Daily yoga

Daily yoga brings a wealth of healthy benefits. It improves balance, reduces blood pressure, and regulates body weight. Even five minutes makes a difference. #Namaste

Evening meditation time

Evening meditation time. It’s easy to twine up our emotions in our stances. It’s much more challenging to breathe and perceive. Take a moment with me to just breathe. #Namaste

Daily yoga

Daily yoga can be simple. Just stand and gently twist from side to side. This stretches the spine and helps it do its job better. Give it a try! #Namaste

Evening meditation time

Evening meditation time. Something I’m pondering. Does this image disturb you? Does it concern you as being a sacrilege? I think someone thought it was a cute image, but I look at this and my mind is screaming: Save the book!
