inaction

Not long ago, I learned that if I let other people tell me how God was supposed to work in my life I would be dead. If I would have given into someone else__ version of God then I would have done nothing to improve my situation. The notion that __f it was meant to be, it will be_, is a pacifying, yet harmful quote, that many spiritualists use to soften the blow of anger. God is not passive. He is relentless, and he will build you through fire. He will put in your heart a need for answers. The intensity of what bothers your soul is often his voice trying to take you from the limited vision of mankind to the full view of the best life he would like to offer you. He is above any pastor, any bishop, any prophet, any church, any cleverly crafted sermon or multi-meaning verse. He is the master of his craft and the author of your forever. Inner peace is only found through action. Fear may darken the trail, but the light of peace stands at the end of such a journey ----waiting with truth.

Doing nothing was as honourable as any available course of action. Think of Hamlet, think of Job, think of Jesus before Pilate.

To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.

The situation on Earth today is too dire for us to act from habit__o reenact again and again the same kinds of solutions that brought us to our present extremity. Where does the wisdom to act in entirely new ways come from? It comes from nowhere, from the void; it comes from inaction. When we see it, we realize it was right in front of us all along. It is never far away; yet at the same time it is in a different universe__ different Story of the World.

Anything or everything can happen. You determine how good or bad they are

How can you follow your heart, unless you know why you have allowed it to be empty for so long and didn't have the courage to fix it?

Want of foresight, unwillingness to act when action would be simple and effective, lack of clear thinking, confusion of counsel until the emergency comes, until self-preservation strikes its jarring gong - these are the features which constitute the endless repetition of history.

As long as [man] does not convert it into action, it does not matter how much he thinks about this new repentance... Wallow in it... Write a book about it; that is often an excellent way of sterilising the seeds which [Heavenly Father] plants in a human soul... Do anything but act. No amount of piety in his imagination and affections will harm [the cause of evil] if [it is kept] out of his will... The more often he feels without acting, the less he will ever be able to act, and, in the long run, the less he will be able to feel.

Pessimism becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy it reproduces itself by crippling our willingness to act.

Make voyages. Attempt them. There's nothing else.

Your life will be simplified when you choose inaction when no action is required and choose action when action is required!

Inaction only makes a task more daunting in your eye. Act quickly, before you overthink, get anxious or give up.

You are where you are right now because of the actions you've taken, or maybe, the inaction you've taken.

It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.

If you try and lose then it isn't your fault. But if you don't try and we lose, then it's all your fault.

With the continued support of citizens who refuse to accept inaction at the expense of future generations, we will lead the world toward a sustainable future.

Action cures fear, inaction creates terror.

Thoughtless risks are destructive, of course, but perhaps even more wasteful is thoughtless caution which prompts inaction and promotes failure to seize opportunity.
