11. Day 3:  Breathe & Always ASK

I am continuing my bid to extend love to my fear of success (which feels much like a bear breathing down my neck) through reading a well-known and respected book about success by Jack Canfield (“The Success Principles”).  I have had the privilege of hearing him speak twice at the BNI International Conference.  Most recently in November of last year.  It is seeing and hearing him that is giving me the willingness to persevere in the face of a type of book that usually leaves me nauseated or overwhelmed or both.
