"We're so afraid of demonstrating hubris, so afraid of the shame of being told we flew too high, so paralyzed by the fear that we won't fit in, that we buy into the propaganda and don't do what we are capable of." -- Seth Godin, The Icarus Deception: How High Will You Fly? (2012)

I have spent so long being afraid of losing and afraid of winning that I"m tired of it. I'm going to just do what I do and not let myself be scared any more.
