Fearless...Valorie Burton

I've never been fearless. But I talk back to my fear. I tell it to shut up. I tell it what I'm going to do - not vice versa!

Don't Be Controlled By Your Feelings...Valorie Burton

You don't have to be controlled by your feelings. You are going to doubt yourself sometimes. You'll feel insecure sometimes. But feeling insecure and acting on that insecurity are two separate issues.

Face Your Fears!...Valorie Burton with song by Kirk Franklin

Whenever you delve into deeper questions, you will encounter resistance. It’s fear. Everything you do in life is out of either fear or love. Love for others, love for God, love for yourself, and passion for something are examples of love that motivates you to do certain things. I challenge you to notice your fears and face them!

Resilience Is...Valorie Burton

Resilience is not about looking perfect or maintaining a flawlessly upbeat attitude as you navigate your way out of a ditch and onto a new path.  What matters is that you climb out of that ditch, even if you occasionally stumble on your way up.

Don't Rush...Valorie Burton

“Don't rush into the things, whether a decision, a relationship, or a major purchase. Urgency is often just fear in disguise. Have faith. Slow down. Be wise.”
