' Fear and Desire '...

Since they’re both focused on the future,
fear and desire are simultaneously in your
heart.

Contained within every desire, however, is a
hidden fear that “It won’t happen.”

Paradoxically, though, contained within every
fear is also a hidden desire that “It won’t happen.”

Your fears will begin to diminish whenever you
stop feeding your desires.

And, of course, vice versa.

Fears and desires always eat from the same trough.
