“Courage is moreexhilarating than fear and in the long run it is easier. We do not have tobecome heroes overnight. Just a step at a time, meeting each new thing thatcomes up, seeing it is not as dreadful as it appeared, discovering we have thestrength to stare it down.”
Eleanor Roosevelt, one of the world's best loved andmost admired public figures, offers a wise and intimate guide on how toovercome fears, embrace challenges as opportunities, and cultivate civic pride:You Learn by Living. A crucial precursor to better-living guides likeMark Nepo's The Book of Awakening or Robert Persig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance,as well as political memoirs such as John F. Kennedy's Profiles in Courage,the First Lady's illuminating manual of personal exploration resonates with thetimeless power to change lives.
