Success through Compassion [21-0075]

Most of the fear you experience in your life is much like the roar of an old lion whose teeth have begun to fall out, and who no longer has any power over you. While the roar may still be loud and scary, it is really all just bluster—and mostly harmless. The time has come to stop allowing the old lion to scare you with its toothless roar.
