A quotation from Eric Hoffer

Fear comes from uncertainty. When we are absolutely certain, whether of our worth or worthlessness, we are almost impervious to fear. Thus a feeling of utter unworthiness can be a source of courage.

Eric Hoffer (1902-1983) American writer, philosopher, longshoreman
Passionate State of Mind, Aphorism 87 (1955)

Welcome to January. I'm taking time to start breaking down my vision items into goals and projects, as much as I can, that are as detailed and achievable as I can get them. Who do I need to be to achieve my goals - that is just as important as what action steps I need to take. Sometimes I need courage to overcome past limitations. I send you COURAGE and FEARLESSNESS! Let's do this thing! #courage #overcomeLimitations #vision #goals #projects #fearlessness #FutureSelf #Renewal #SelfConfidence

This is how we begin to make a difference. #change #fearlessness #writersofmastodon #writingforchange

I've learned that #masking as an #ActuallyAutistic is not a binary thing. It is like an onion win many layers.

There are layers of #unmasking that require extreme levels of trust and/or #fearlessness that are super rare. Even with loved partners, even in #safespaces for neurodivergence.

These deep layers include letting people into the "the basement" of your mind, seeing all the darkness and trauma and monsters down there.
