Fear

Wait a few years.  What you think is nuts now will be nothing!  

JUST DO IT!  No regrets.

You'll regret it more if you don't do it.

Heck, I signed up for a second one even before I did my first one!  Now that's NUTS!!!

Spending your life on the couch, eating potato chips and watching TV - that's nuts.

People living deeply have no fear of death.
Anais Nin

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
Frank Herbert
