“Anxiety is experiencing failure in advance.”
“I define anxiety as experiencing failure in advance…and if you have anxiety about initiating a project, then of course you will associate risk with failure.”
“When you resort to violence to prove a point, you’ve just experienced a profound failure of imagination.”
“In my opinion, anyone who says they have no anxiety at all over experiencing their own physical death is not in touch with their humanity".~R. Alan Woods [2012]”
“God is not ecstatic about the lack you are experiencing; He is not delightful over your failures, He is not happy about your stagnancy.”
“He had experienced the fear of failure, which is frequently mistaken for failure. He made his resolve and he proceeded to work again. He forgot, in the interest of his work, that he might possibly fail.”
