Fear... Challenge Accepted !
Powerfully, Effectively Banish Fear
Seeds of Fear?
Fear can be a major barrier for desires but, once faced with strength and courage, can become a welcomed challenge; an opportunity to assert ultimate power. Because of fear, many times, we choose and have chosen to hold our desires hostage instead of detaching from it just enough to plant the seed, nurture it and allow it to grow. Thus, desires become seeds of thought and fantasy we clutch close as protection for ourselves from the outcome never planting them into the soil.
What if the seed doesn’t grow, what if I forget to water it or it doesn’t get enough sunlight? Or will the seed ever flourish? All will laugh in the delight of my great failure. So, now that we have planted more seeds of doubt from fear than motivation let’s address it. The seeds of doubt were effortlessly planted as a defense, leaving the seeds of desires lying dormant in the shadows of fear by our own doing. Surely, it is time to plant those seeds in good soil, have patience for Harvesting season, believe in your abilities and delight in the blossoming as reward. Soon fear will be of no concern as the karmic wheel of fortune turns!
What Is Fear?
Firstly, fear is the ultimate denial of one’s own desires and power that can only be given by the self. Consequently, it is allowed to make decisions in our lives because that is the soil in which we have chosen to plant seeds, what we have chosen to nurture and therefore what is expected to grow; more to fear.
Moreover, no matter the excuse or justification, as there is none for the horrible rejections, loss and circumstances of the past there aren’t any for successful, beneficial accomplishments either. However, giving ourselves permission to kick fear’s ass by doing what it is that we desire in compassion, respect and acceptance of ourselves and others while keeping all focus on the present, we stand in our true mastery. We do what we came here to do, never imagined we could and help others to do the same. On the contrary, we fearfully have the willingness to bring death to a human life before we decide to bring death to the perception and illusion of something within ourselves in order to preserve it.
Whenever we take a chance and enter unfamiliar territory or put ourselves into the world in a new way, we experience fear. Very often this fear keeps us from moving ahead with our lives. The trick is to
FEEL THE FEAR AND DO IT ANYWAY

Secondly, how dare we deny the world of our talent and skill, beauty and light and charitable hearts due to fear. Many times we deny ourselves our divine birthright as a sacrifice for fear! Nevertheless, fear is not placed in dominance of our power, it is placed within our power; and we are in power to accept its presence as a challenge to our wisdom and masterful being. What is power without the opportunity to use it? Naturally, the dark moments are the opportunities to observe how brightly your light shines. There becomes a certain appreciation for darkness, weakness and confusion. Otherwise, when do you get a chance to shine, assert strength and exude wisdom?
That is the purpose of the past challenges and rejections. To shine! Not for the purpose of never having to face another challenge or rejection, sit in it nor to use fear as a shield to never have to face them again. Neither is it to build self-shame and blame, cause hurt or sabotage yourself or others as revenge, a mechanism of defense shielding the return of past hurts, nor to work to be better than anyone or anything. It is simply to SHINE!
All you have to do to diminish your fear is to develop trust in your ability to handle whatever comes your way!...If you knew you could handle everything that came your way, what would you fear?
- NOTHING

Thoughts Are Things!
As Prentice Mulford states in the classic book, Thoughts are Things, “when your mind is diverted from possibly the long habit of thinking and living in the gloomy side of things and admitting gloomy thought, you will find to your surprise that the very place the sight of which gave you pain will give you pleasure, because you have banished a certain unhealthy mental condition, into which you before allowed yourself to drift. You can then revisit the localities connected with your past, remember and live only in the bright and lively portion of that past, and reject all thought about “sad changes,” and “those who have passed away, never to return,” etc. I have proven this to myself. This habit of thought can, through an unconscious training, grow to such an extent as to pervade a person’s mind, at all times and places, and bring on a fear of loss of some kind, when there is absolutely no loss to be sustained.” I HAVE PROVEN THIS TO MYSELF. Have you? Are you up for the challenge?
Experiencing the Past
Critically, we must understand the purpose of our past. The purpose of experiencing the past is to place the tools in your tool box that are to serve you moving forward while leaving all else in the place of no return; the past. Also, as Mulford said, “ I do not mean to imply that we should try to banish all past remembrance. Banish only the sad part. Live as much as you please in whatever of your past that has given you healthy enjoyment.”
In this way, the focus is you being the best you without regard to negative external circumstances and situations. Now, with our tools, we can accept rejection to move on to what’s really meant for us. Undoubtedly, we strongly knock down any barriers, shine light through the darkest times, demolish fear, love unconditionally and with two middle fingers in the air to the naysayers, the past, and fear we FEEL THE FEAR AND DO IT ANYWAY!!!

“Fear is but another name for lack of power to control our minds, or, in other words, to control the kind of thought we think or put out… Cowardice and lack of mental control mean about the same thing.”
- Prentice Mulford
What Do We Fear?
We fear being alone, being turned down, getting old, losing who we love, what we love, feeling a previous feeling, failing, winning, fear being in fear, the list can go on and on and waste your time. So, if there is any part of you that believes in ANYTHING higher than the human existence and self, even if it’s your Higher Self, then you are fully aware, even if only at a subconscious level, that we are NOT built to scowl at life’s circumstances, run scared and fold.
We’re built Ford tough to courageously stand together for one another not one or the other! After all, if it were easy we’d be created to deal with easy and do it alone. Fear is there, B.S is there, loss is there, hurt pride is there. Now stand up, face it and demolish it with great conviction and zero apologies of it. With fear being of one of the lowest vibrations and you of the Most High, which is more intense, intimidating, significant and dominant? It may be or seem easier said than done but REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE!
We Be Feeln' It!
We feel fear at the times of the grandest breakthroughs, long awaited accomplishments, near the finish and when the unknown is, well, unknown. At the same time, fear is like a weapon, its existence isn’t necessarily a threat, it is what is done with it that determines its impact. Use it as a compass along with your intuition to discern when it is protecting you and when it it is hindering you. Fear is really a powerless feeling that stands between you and success and strips you from being in the know and the now. Furthermore, we are the wrecking ball; we don’t stare at the great big building or wall of fear in despair and awe of its massive structure. Yes, it exists. But we accept the challenge to crash right through that bitch!
