One of my greatest fears was a fear of heights, so I jumped out of a plane with a parachute in a tandem jump in 1986.\u00a0 The feeling was beyond words and to this day, I draw strength from it.\u00a0 Such a powerful experience shattered those fears and belief systems and\u00a0it\u00a0turned out to be\u00a0so much fun.<\/p>\n

What is your greatest fear? What are your belief systems about that?
\nHow do you allow it to hold you back from what you want?
\nWhat areas of your life does it affect?<\/p>\n

Definition of fear:<\/p>\n

F<\/strong>alse
\nE<\/strong>vidence
\nA<\/strong>ppearing
\nR<\/strong>eal<\/p>\n

Have the courage to face and confront your fear and watch it dissolve.\u00a0 When you shine the light of awareness and truth on fear, it becomes clear that it is false evidence that appeared real.<\/p>\n

The power of positive thinking overwhelms and destroys fear and negativity.\u00a0 It\u00a0requires just as much energy to be negative as it does to be positive, yet the consistent long term results are very different.\u00a0 Which do you choose now?<\/p>\n

Creating a strong pattern of positive thinking creates an empowered life and success.
\nIf you use that same energy in a negative direction the results are destructive.<\/p>\n

Either way, you have to expend the same amount of energy.
\nDoesn’t it make more sense to be positive and create the life you want and deserve?<\/p>\n

If you have a negative pattern or fear, consistent focus on a new, positive thought, pattern or behavior for 20 days will replace the old one.\u00a0 Positive self talk is so important and powerful.<\/p>\n

Scientists have discovered that over 95% of all negative thoughts and fears do not happen.\u00a0 Negative thoughts are a waste of energy because eventually you have to focus on the positive and what you actually want to create and do it.<\/p>\n

So why worry, it will probably NEVER happen<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n
