Fear No More

We must alleviate all fear in order to progress to the next level in life. You wouldn’t believe the amount of people who use their fears as an excuse to not take responsibility for their actions, thoughts and feelings. Fear holds us back from learning and being truly happy. It's The Most Common Form Of Sabotage Our Ego is the control panel for all the emotions we experience in life. It's like an invisible micro-chip that can dictate our present and future circumstances unbeknownst to our conscious thought process. Through our past experiences we have gathered information and fed it to our sub-conscious memory, which in turn made an imprint of every emotional reaction to the psyche. This is what causes us to create patterns, positive or unhealthy. Fear is one the most common negative reactions to an experience. It has the strongest command over choosing the direction we take when it comes to desires in our waking life. For example, one may have no issue with entering a new romantic relationship, but may have a foreboding mentality when it comes to marriage. They can exist in their current state without progressing to the next level due to their fear of change and self-imposed premonition of failure. By allowing fear to consume your thoughts, it will transform your energy to a negative attraction device that will not only sabotage the good things you have now, but prevent future positive events from coming in. Nothing will change in your life until you interrupt the fear-based cycle you’ve constructed for yourself. When you consistently fear, you’re not allowing yourself to complete the lessons you’ve agreed to in this lifetime. Furthermore, you’re not allowing other people to complete theirs. Take a look around you. When all you do is live in fear, it affects everyone in your circle. Pay attention to how they react to your negativity and open up to the possibility that you need to change your self-destructive ways. Trust Yourself This is really the highest hill to climb. You have to TRUST your primary gut instincts and NOT second-guess yourself. The minute you do that, you’re just telling Spirit that you’re in no shape to accept all the great things coming your way. BELIEVE you know what you’re doing because you DO. When I’m giving my readings I absolutely HAVE TO TRUST the information coming through from Spirit. If I start second-guessing what I’m seeing, hearing and feeling, there’s no way I’d be giving accurate readings. How would you feel if your advisor were doing that? You would be less likely to trust them, wouldn’t you? Especially since it would sound as though they don’t know what they’re doing. The same goes for you. If you second-guess your first instinct, Spirit will figure you don‘t know what you‘re doing, so guess what? You will be proven wrong by getting a life lesson. Then you’ll kick yourself later. Trust yourself, it’s so worth it in the end. Let Go Of Fear After you start believing you know what you’re doing by going with your first gut instinct, it’s time to get rid of the fear monster. There are so many ways to do this. I prefer to use Personal Affirmations to start the process. "I fear nothing." "I accept the lessons God sends my way with courage." "I am not afraid to take chances." "I trust in God completely." "Everything happens for a reason." "I am not afraid to learn and grow." "Everything happens in its divine time." "I can only control my actions and no one else's." "For every negative event there is a positive result." These are just prime examples of the personal fear busting affirmations I do on a daily basis. I’m going to tell you a little story. When I started doing readings on a professional level, I had a full-time job working for a financial advisor. It was a stable job with perks and bonuses. I knew the minute I started doing readings online that this was the path I agreed to. I was terribly unhappy at my job and was aching to leave. I did end up leaving a good 7 months later; however, it was a very long and painful process. I got to the point where I was getting physically ill on my way to work. Obviously it was Spirit’s way of kicking my ass. Why wouldn‘t I leave if I was so miserable? I was afraid to take the chance of leaving a stable job for a commission based career, even though I knew that I would be much happier. Of course at the time I was contemplating leaving, the economy was in the dumps. Finally I left and let me tell you, I do feel as though I’m a success story. All I had to do was bite the bullet, trust in God and roll out. When I told my boss I was leaving, I was crying uncontrollably. It was as if a ton of bricks had just been lifted off my shoulders. I am so happy now that I over came my fear of failure in this field. It really was easy, now that I look back and I’m kicking myself for not doing this earlier, but what’s done is done. The best way to get rid of fear is to tell your ego to shut up and just DO IT ANYWAY. Don't Allow Fear To Limit Your Growth Like I said earlier, when you put that negative fearful energy out to the universe, you’ll only get what you fear in return. If you fear that the man of your dreams is in love with someone else and at that time he isn’t, rest assured that you’re helping to manifest that event. What you’re doing is sending that man a telepathic message saying, "go ahead and date that woman, I want you to. Prove me right!" If you’re guilty of this, please take a closer look at your life. Notice how everything seems to fall apart simultaneously. Even if you call a psychic and they tell you "No, he’s not in love with someone else", that won’t be good enough for you. Be aware of the negative energy you’re spreading around when you do this. Nobody wants to be around a person who is always so depressing and fearful. Not a single person would be inclined to help you either. Don’t allow fear to control your life. Take back the reins, get off your booty and make things happen. I guarantee you will begin to see clearly and be ecstatic to find out who you REALLY are. You will then be able to reach heights you never knew existed, let alone think were possible. Replacing Fear With Personal Power Once you have realized fear is present, it's important to want to get rid of it. If you don't make a wholehearted attempt to find the cause, you will not be able to progress to the next level of your personal evolution; thus not finding that true balance or happiness you desire. I understand just as well as anyone out there that change can be scary, especially when you don't know what lies ahead. Like I said in the first article, my leaving a stable job for something that didn't guarantee security was a struggle, but I DID get passed it and embraced every single obstacle that came up. I transformed fearful energy into positive manifesting and I feel as though I'm a success story. Anyone can do this! The first step in alleviating fear is to change your thought process. Below are some examples: * Speaking into being positive goals and having the belief that it's possible * Saying positive, personal affirmations regarding the subject that is feared * Constantly being aware of any negative connotation you may say or feel How to keep the doors of a prosperous future open, without fear One of the main objectives in utilizing your own personal power is the ability to let go. Forgive yourself and those who have cause any type of imbalance in your life, past or present. This may not be easy, but then again this is life, not heaven. Anytime we're in transition to a major life change many of our past fears, insecurities or devastating events may float to the surface and need to be acknowledged. This is the time to analyze the situations and find our own closure so we may be allowed the key to the new door. Here is the simplified process: 1. TRULY forgive those who have made you feel inadequate in the situation 2. Forgive yourself for any action or inaction that has caused you to hold on to the issue 3. Pull a positive result from the negative event and try to find the lesson 4. Be aware of what you have learned to prevent a repeat of the cycle 5. Release the situation and people involved to the Universe
