On Archiecture - I believe - José Antonio Coderch (1960)

Untitled - Alexandria (Wed 04 Dec 2013)
José Antonio Coderch (*) writes On Architecture (*):

I believe (*) that a new and authentic living tradition of works will be born, which can be diverse in many aspects, but which will have been brought about by a deep knowledge (*) of the fundamentals (*), and with a great awareness (*), without worrying about the final result (*), which, fortunately, escapes us in every case and isn't an end in itself, but a consequence.

On Fear - Seth Godin (Wed 04 Dec 2013)

A bit of a balancing act - Shadow - Alexandria (Wed 04 Dec 2013)
Seth Godin (*) writes On Embracing Fear (*):

It's okay to be nervous (*). Instead of fighting (*) that anxiety (*), dance (*) with it. Welcome it. Relish it. It's a sign (*) you're on to something. [..] This is important after all.

When we welcome a feeling like this, when we embrace (*) it and actually look forward (*) to it, the feeling (*) doesn't get louder and more debilitating (*). It softens, softens to the point where we can work with it.

Use your fear (*) like fuel (*).
