"Secrets" of Life

In listenin' to de gospel station, ah heard de followin' simple yet profound statement: "Your Dearest Wish Is the Flip-side of Your Worst Fear." (That entire series is aimed at helpin' us to fulfill life's purpose, to glorify God.)

Examples:
If your dearest wish is wealth, your worst fear is poverty. Life lesson: temperance
If your worst fear is rejection, your dearest wish is acceptance. Life lesson: self-acceptance.
If your worst fear is starvation, yu too greedy:)

i never thought about that way.. but it is true indeed.. my dearest wish is success, so my worst nightmare must be (and is) failure.

Lovemyself1st, they did mention failure and said de life-lesson for that is courage, since "Fear of failure is an ocean, but failure itself is a momentary mist."
