Fear!

The number one reason that people fail is because they are scared. They are scared to lose. Therefore, they don't try so they lose by default.  If you wake up every day hating the job that you serve eight to ten hours a day on then you're a loser. Just think about most working class people. When it's time to retire, most people get half of their salary and a reduction in medical benefits.  Therefore, most retirees have to get a second job to maintain the same financially stressful daily life they've been living for the last forty years but now they're old can't do anything else but wait to die. They are all losers.

The one thing I can guarantee is that all those people lived a life of fear. They all played it safe and worked their nine to five. They paid their bills on time. They bought a house and raised children. All they did was become a robot to society.

They'll turn around at sixty five and say "Where did my life go? Who's going to take care of me if I can't take care of myself? because the same society that they've been serving for the last forty years says to them "You're worthless. We don't give a fuck!" They'll remember all of the opportunities they did not take because they were scared.

For all the forks in the road they've come to in life, they always took the safe direction to receive the minimum benefit. They're scared to lose. This is the common destiny for ninety nine percent of Americans. They will die old, sick, poor and probably in a nursing home.

Fear struck the hearts of all of these people for forty years. If you live a life of fear, you are going to die in fear. If you live a fearless life, no matter how long you live, at least you've lived. Don't fear anything. Fear doesn't come from God.
