..........original photography and artwork @bleujay.
















'Fear and Dread Versus a Relaxed Mental Attitude'

Thank you Steemit readers.



Principles are timeless truths/concepts/proverbs for our ponderance.






A kind note to all new Steemians......good manners and thoughtfulness of others will take you far....as for those who leave notes and links directing members to their site.....please be advised this is not the Steemit way.


Welcome to Steemit.





Sort:  

This principle is exactly why John Elway and Peyton Manning are not only SB champions but also hall of famers. Lol.....had to put my Broncos spin on it!

Thank you for your reply @broncnutz.

So very true...and what spectacular athletes they were for this very reason rising above the rest set apart at the Hall of Fame.

Yes....that is why the principles stand without commentary...so that you can apply it from your frame of reference.....well done.

All the best to you. Cheers.

edit.........have you seen @sportspodium's offer.

Long time no see. :) I think I seem to be trapped in fear now. I'm trying to change the fear into courage and hope. Even though I know the question and answer, it's not easy to find an exit. :) Thank you. @bleujay See you soon again!

Thank you for your reply @bontonstory.

Appreciate you dropping by.

I understand...it is natural considering the circumstances .......which were inevitable.

Freedom always has enemies.

Thinking of you and your lovely country....mon ami.

Abientot.

I resteem this. :) @bleujay

Very kind of you to reSteem @bontonstory......thank you. ^_^

This principal is great. The calm prevail in a poor situation! The artwork is great too!

Thank you for your kind words @hansenator.

Appreciate you dropping by.

Yes.....keeping a cool head always assists in a poor situation.

Objectivity versus Subjectivity.

So glad to hear you appreciated the post......including the artwork.... ^_^

All the best. Cheers.

NB....You may want to check out @sportspodium's offer.

No problem bleujay! Just an update: Investment club is going well. Participation will eventually grow because the few me and my friend have in there are learning a lot. One of them is going to Embry-Riddle like I did, so that is also cool! Showed them some of your posts to inspire them.

Thank you for the update @hansenator.

The idea of an investment club sounds superb.

....thank you for your appreciation of bleujay's post enough to show your students.....very humbling.

As always thank you for your support. Cheers.

Very beautiful drawing @bleujay !
It would be like a super ability ....being able to think under pressure, because like this you can resolve any pressing issue.
Obstacles would be just small things that you can overcome in matter of seconds.

Thank you for your kind words @cynetyc.

Appreciate you stopping by.

Yes.....the ability to concentrate and be flexible....in order to apply what you know to the situation at hand.

Probably something you are given an opportunity to do everyday whilst you are at sea.

Lovely posts you have out there.

Wishing you and yours all the best. Cheers.

Greetings bleujay!
Great artwork as always, beautiful colours ..
Now for the principle ...
personally, i think you need to embrace fear to be courageous ...
I fear many things, but i try not to panic ☺
all the best ...

Thank you for your kind reply @koskl.

Oh yes....keeping a cool head is best.

Appreciate your compliments with regard to the artwork.

Good to 'see' you. ^_^

All the best to you as well. Cheers.

Whilst its a fantastic principle all I can think is how glad I am to see the Sky Fish. Oh I have missed them and they have gladdeded my heart on this dreary Wednesday morning!

Thank you for your kind words @meesterboom.

Appreciate you stopping by as always.

So happy to hear you appreciated the Sky Fish especially since you were given a two for one post. ^_^ .....would not want to over do it.

Sometimes the clouds just lend themselves to this sort of thing......sounds like your skies say....'rough seas'.

When it rains bleujay cannot help but think of Shakespeare's use of rainy days and storms to indicate rough times ahead especially memorable in the play.....Taming of the Shrew.

Wishing you and yours all the best. Cheers.

I have always admired the bard's imagery!

All the best to you @bleujay and thank you once again for the double fish joy! :0)

This is a great principle!
Thank you dear @bleujay!

Thank you for your lovely reply @deleni.

It always brings a smile to hear you can appreciate the principle. ^_^

Lovely posts you have out there....keep up the good work.

All the best to you. Cheers.

Thank you dear!
I'm very please! 🤗

Your principles are the excellent advices for every day!
They’re laconic, but it’s enough to show the right way!
My gratitude to you dear @bleujay!


Many thanks for your wise principle and gorgeous artwork! Have a beautiful day! Best wishes to you!

Thank you for your kind reply @evgsk.

Yes...laconic...is right....attempting to leave room for the reader to bring one's frame of reference to the principle and then give it ponderance. ^_^

So glad to hear you can appreciate them.

Your compliment regarding the artwork is appreciated.

Wishing you all the best. Cheers.

Beautiful artwork @bleujay!
I love each fish on each pic!
You really are a master of sea craft ^ ^
The colors and the look on the fish's face makes me happy!

I showed my husband and he said wow! even those black and whites talk!
You're freaking A W E S O M E Mon Ami!

The principle .. am intrigued :D

Thank you for your kind words @englishtchrivy.

So glad you enjoyed the fishes artwork and are giving the principle a think.

Every artist appreciates an audience.....thank you for your compliments.

Appreciate you dropping by as always Mon Ami.

Wishing you all the best. Cheers. ^_^

You're so good at that !
Only you turns the sky into a happy sea
am off to bed too Mon Ami
Sleep tight!

Yes. You need to buy when others are selling in panic and sell when they are buying in greed.

Thank you for your reply @maarnio.

Indeed. Appreciate your reminder.

Now there is a thinking man for you.... ^_^

Reminds bleujay.....of a couple of sayings.....do not go off half cocked.....do not lose your head.......how easy it is when it comes to cryptos.

You did hear about @sportspodium...I hope....perhaps you will be writing a post about it someday....

All the best to you and yours. Cheers.

Thanks bleujay. Resteemed Sportspodium.

As always, your principles are thought provoking and always true.

There really is a very fine line between fear and courage and I do think that you are spot on, it is the ability to deal with pressure that turns one into the other.

Your art for this post was incredibly interesting and I think each person will take a different subjective opinion from them.

Really exceptional and thought provoking principle and art this evening.

Thank you.

Thank you for your thought-full reply @scottish01

So enjoyed hearing reading your comment....yes...hopefully the post is thought provoking.

Happy to hear you appreciated it....you are correct about the art....let each have their own think about it....

Interesting thing about having a weekly post...it does seem alot more thought goes into it.

Wishing you and yours all the best. Cheers.

I have missed your principles 🙏🙏🙏

Thanks for Sharing
☺️

Thank you for your kind reply @vannfrik.

Appreciate you dropping by.

Yes...life has come calling and bleujay must put Steemit on the back burner as it were.

No worries...planning on posting once a week or so. You are very kind to notice.

All the best to you. Cheers.

Good principle! I absolutely agree with you!

Amazing artworks! Wonderful bright blue sky with white fluffy clouds!

Have a nice day! ;)

Thank you for your kind compliments @tangmo.

We enjoy those clouds......do we not?

Thank you for your kind words @lydon.sipe.

Always good to hear from you.

So glad to hear you appreciated the principle and the artwork.

Wishing you and @mustardseed all the best.

Cheers.

I do what I do and the best I can do is when I am under pressure. Sometimes I make pressure to myself to work or do anything better. Many people wouldn't agree but pressure is my inspiration.

Thank you for your reply @dumar022.

Many times under pressure if we are concentrating/thinking then indeed we operate best whilst thinking. ^_^

Wishing you and yours all the best. Cheers.

hm like that yes.. its more then an ability I think you need to make a step to be able to right?

Nice drawing...The difference between fear and courage is the ability to concentrate, trust, and rest in God’s Word when under great pressure.

Thank you for your reply.

Indeed....if you know God's word...then you can think God's word.......under pressure.

I respect your opinion...But God has given us everything we need for life and godliness.So we must trust and obey.

Amazing artwork!

Thank you for your kind words...@throughothereyes.

Great words, as always! Photos are wonderful especially B&W! Welcome back dear! Have a beautiful day :)

My pleasure to be back....you will probably see bleujay post about once a week for a while...sometimes 'life' gets in the way of Steemit. No worries. ^_^

No need to think a lot about this - I manage to save my family member just by preserving a cool head.

Please remove the image......

???
I don't understand why an image is a problem?
But if you hate it... here, it's gone.

Lovely ....thank you.

The image is a distraction from the post.

You are very kind to comply with bleujay's wishes.

Ah ok, no problem at all.
Have a wonderful day.

Es una hermosa foto qué podemos ver sus atributos reflejados

Yes...these are the artworks originating from and belonging to bleujay as well as the photograph of the cloud.....using the photograph of the cloud to draw the sea life.......and now Sky Fish artwork.

Perhaps you said something else....?

Good thought !

Thank you for your reply.

Glad you found it of benefit.

This is a nice principle
Principles are the basis of living
Nice artwork
Thanks for sharing

If you fear on something then you need some courage to overcome your fear. What you written have come with different meaning, depending how you understand the sentences and passage.

Yes, to think under pressure, and even more so to make decisions - is very difficult.
