Bubble Wrap Needed

"Very few people who hit bottom bounce. Most break."
The downside to The Chemical Buddha’s 'Bottoms Up Insight' was that most people were too fragile to actually do it. Somewhere along the way, they would break up and not be able to continue. Some even died in their attempt to let go of everything. Or, put another way, they truly let go of everything. Even life. While others either clung to their fear of what people thought or the crippling codependence on any and everything around them. In fact, those that couldn't let go, just took the few lessons they learned and retreated further into their shells. Deciding they would rather be miserable than take a chance at freedom and happiness. The Chemical Buddha didn't have patience for these, "Chicken shits." He chose to live his life as an example of what can happen if you just say, "What the fuck? Let’s try this." I think his results speak for themselves.
Are you happy where you are? If not, what one thing can you say, "What the fuck?" to this week?
What is the biggest fear that holds you back?
