The Antidote For Fear And Anger

Posted on July 13, 2012 by russtowne

I collect quotes and sayings. I even use what I consider to be the best of them (what I call “Truisms”) as affirmations. So in my travels, when I see a quote I like I tend to write it down. I saw the quote below some time ago but now I don’t recall if it was at someone’s blog or elsewhere, so if you recently shared it at your blog please say so in a comment and I’ll happily give your blog credit for it.

The Antidote for Fear and Anger

“Gratitude is the antidote to the two things that stop us which are fear and anger. Fear is why we don’t take action, and anger is why we get stuck.” –Tony Robbins

In that case, I’m doubly grateful to be such a grateful man! ;-D!
