“Always do what you are afraid to do.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
WHAT is the deal with FEAR?
WHY do so many people live in FEAR of the very things that they most want?
So often, I hear people explain to me how they’re afraid to do this or do that…and almost everything they mention is somehow tied to doing something they would LOVE to do!
So you want to start up a business? AWESOME! Simply get the vision, get clear, start talking to people, make some calls, network, offer your services and keep on the look-out of what to do next.
“Oh, but I get so nervous! I’m afraid people will say NO. I’m afraid they’ll reject me, they’ll think I don’t know anything, I’ll feel incompetent and I’ll ultimately FAIL!”
WHOA!
You know, I think we would all be shocked to hear what’s actually going on UNDER THE SURFACE in most people’s minds.
In fact, I think YOU would be shocked if you heard everything that was REALLY going on underneath the surface in your mind. The surface being all the things you are ALREADY conscious of.
You see, MOST of our behaviors are not rooted in conscious awareness. In fact, it’s well known in the fields of neuroscience and psychology that all the drivers of behavior are located in our UNCONSCIOUS MINDS. That is, what’s REALLY making us afraid has NOTHING TO DO with what it is we’re saying we are afraid of. (Read that last sentence one more time)
It’s more about what you’re actually creating inside of you.
In a couple of weeks, I (along with my good friend Michael Mackintosh from Success Ultra Now and Living In Magic) are going to be sharing WAY MORE with you about what’s really going on in the deep corridors of your Unconscious Mind. But for now, it’s important that we start bringing some things into AWARENESS. Conscious Awareness, that is.
Let’s start by REALIZING that most of what we are responding to every day isn’t actually HAPPENING! (You may want to read that one again as well ![]()
Yes, you read that right. I mean, it feels like it is. But when you take a good long look…it’s only happening in your mind. The reason it feels so “real” is because of the way you are running those images and movies in your mind. In other words, it’s about how you’re running your nervous system.
So let’s talk about FEAR. Let’s EXPLORE Fear. Just for a moment, let’s take a deep look into what scares us, what makes us fill up with fear and explore what is actually going on. OK…so I know that doesn’t sound as nice as me asking you out to a cup of tea or going for a nice walk by the ocean…but it can seriously transform the very fabric of your FEARS…by EXPLORING them…and then RELEASE THEM.
So bear with me for a moment and follow me as we bring awareness to what is REALLY going on. Yes?
So go ahead and tune into something you’re afraid of. YES…go ahead and do this now. STOP READING. Do this. Tune into something, maybe an action step you’ve been afraid to take in alignment with your VISION or GOALS…
And just bring it up. Let the images start surging through.
Notice how it feels. Notice what you see. Notice what is UNDERNEATH this fear. And as you do so…read these words:
FEAR = Fantasized Experiences Appearing Real!
Like I said, most fears have NOTHING to do with what actually is. Only the projected thought of what could be. And to make it worse, it’s a projected thought of a negative outcome. Oy!
Is there any wonder WHY people experience so much fear on a day to day basis?
Well, let’s go a little deeper (and like I said, we’re going to go WAY DEEP…probably deeper than most people have EVER gone to as far as revealing HOW your mind works, how you’re creating what you call “real”, how you’re creating your fears, insecurities, doubts, and so on…and it’s going to ROCK YOUR WORLD!)
So let’s talk about one of the BIGGEST and most COMMON UNCONSCIOUS fears, shall we?
This one is sneaky. In fact, it’s SUPER sneaky. Ninja-style sneaky.
It hides and waits for the moment where it can take over the mind of it’s host. It’s been with humans since the beginning. It’s always hanging around and sometimes you can feel it’s presence. But most of the time, you don’t see it.
This fear is one of the BIGGEST fears to RELEASE. And I want to share it with you so you can start on this journey with me and become the FEARLESS being you really are.
So what is this fear?
Here it is…and before I lay it out…it’s important to note that you may have heard this before, and quite frankly I don’t care how many times you’ve heard it. As you may have heard me say before in the past…the three most dangerous words in the english language are “I ALREADY KNOW”. And if KNOWING were enough…most people would be living totally different lives. Especially the self-development junkies. (No offense to anyone. I LOVE studying this material as well. But too often people miss a crucial step in the art of LEARNING…and that is APPLYING)
So EXPLORE this with me. Let’s dive in.
One of the BIGGEST fears almost everyone has and don’t even realize that this is what they are actually FEARING is:
THE FEAR OF CHANGE!
Can you believe it? The one thing that is always constant in life. People fear it.
Why?
For one, change always has a certain level of UNCERTAINTY. And if we really go deeper, this is closer to the core. UNCERTAINTY. If we’re being radically honest with ourselves, nothing is really for certain. there is always a certain amount of uncertainty in any endeavor.
So what would happen if today, right now, you started to EMBRACE higher and higher levels of UNCERTAINTY?
Just imagine what it would do to your fear. Sure, it’s uncertain that you’ll be successful at what you’re setting out to do…but because you now WELCOME and ACCEPT this uncertainty…YOU GET TO PLAY! You get to have fun! You get to explore your edge! You get to be free to surf, to ride, to DANCE! You get to work ONE-ON-ONE with the MYSTERY of life!
In my years of studying people that have created amazing things in this world…all of them…embraced and surrendered to the UNCERTAINTY of life. And this surrender and embrace allowed them to create far more then what they could have in their comfortable, familiar, and CERTAIN reality.
So to end this post, my call for you, my friend, is to EMBRACE THE UNCERTAINTY OF CHANGE.
It will be here for the rest of your life. So, do it now. Do it now and enjoy the wonderful creative experience you are participating in.
I look forward to share SOOO mcuh more with you here soon. So keep your eyes and ears open and look for something VERY SPECIAL that’s coming your way VERY SOON! ![]()
Create a beautiful day!
