2012 Mantra: No Fear — End Notes
I have picked two words for this year's mantra: no fear. When you read interviews with people nearing the end of their lives, they often regret not taking more risks — personally, professionally and especially, in creative endeavors. Over the weekend, I read Michael Crichton's potboiler “State of Fear” and his words inspired the no-fear mantra, too. He wrote: “Modern people live in abject fear. They are afraid of strangers, of disease, of crime, of the environment. They are afraid of the homes they live in, the food they eat, the technology that surrounds them/Rebecca Nappi, SR End Notes.

Question: Have you ever regretted not doing something because you were afraid to do it at the time?
