TEDxCMU - Chris Guillebeau - Fear and Permission

[stand4g8kz]

Great life lessons teached here! Thanks!

[imaginesjm]

Yes, giving up routine and predictable expectations is a difficult thing.

the cage is the establishment, the status quote, the bankers and politicians the offices. Working 9-5 your whole life, thats a cage. Understand the system because the system understands you. They have no problem keeping us in cages, mental and physically. Research the Truth break the chains. STAND UP FOR SOMETHING!

The small man builds cages for everyone he knows, while the sage who has to duck his head when the moon is low, keeps dropping keys for the beutiful rowdy prisoners.

Quotable: "Anxiety is just repeatedly experiencing failure in advance" ~ Seth Godin.

Chris: "There's an incredible power in not giving a shit...but for better or worse, I'm not that person..."

"If you really want to overcome fear, you have to start by giving yourself permission."

If you really want to overcome fear, you've got to face it dead on, and jump. Love it.

[kandos]

the liken of fear with crocodile/killer whale was pretty neat

Maybe nothing new, but a periodic dose of this stuff is great medicine. Thanks.

Awesome Chris. Found this via your newsletter, and was compelled to leave a comment. Would love to see more presentations from you. Loved the permission slip metaphor. @debustyle
