Dear %$firstname$%, WOW... What a weekend! I'm talking about my recent retreat with 22 of my fearless 2009 Platinum Inner Circle Members at the fabulous Ritz in Lake Las Vegas. We soaked up the environment of the Ritz Carlton for two full days of training, sharing, masterminding and hot seats. We even took in the Cirque du Soleil show LOVE, celebrating the musical legacy of The Beatles... quite spectacular! This time I invited two of my secret weapons... my publicist Erin Saxton and co-author Janet Switzer, to coach members on issues from finding more money in their business, to creating new products and lucrative media opportunities for themselves. This elite group of achievers have one thing in common: they all began their journey with me at their very first Breakthrough to Success training. Many attend year after year or assist me as a member of my Breakthrough Assisting Team! I'm so very grateful for their time and dedication, and I look forward to seeing them again at BTS this summer! Did you listen-in on the first BTS Preview Training Call last night? I don't know if you made the call last night, but just in case you missed it, the call recordings and Action Guide have been posted at the BTS website. At the conclusion of the 'preview' portion of the call, I introduced listeners to 4 brand-new exercises that I have recently found valuable in my own life and explained how you can apply them into your own life for personal transformation... starting today! I'll be holding another training call next week where I'll be teaching for the entire call and inviting graduates to share their success stories on how this work has allowed them to create breakthrough after breakthrough. Are you on the verge of a breakthrough? Fear may be one of the signals. We’re constantly facing our fears as we continue on our journey toward success and fulfillment. It’s time to face those fears and deal with them once and for all. It need not be scary… today’s article tells you more. Have a successful week! Your Success Mentor,
Jack Canfield, America's #1 Success Coach

Putting Fear in Its Place
Whenever you start a new project, take on a new venture, or put yourself out there, there’s usually some fear involved. Unfortunately, most people let fear stop them from taking the necessary steps to achieve their dreams. Confronting your fears is a very necessary step in achieving success. There is simply no other way. Fear can be a helpful emotion, as it tells you when you need to be extra careful, keenly aware, and cautious. Fear is not an emotion that is telling you to stop. In fact, it’s telling you just the opposite! Acknowledging your feelings of fear helps you know when you are stepping out of your comfort zone. It points your awareness to areas where you could improve and grow. Successful people also feel fear. Yet they don’t let it get in the way of anything they want to do—or have to do. They understand that fear is something to be acknowledged, experienced, and taken along for the ride. They have learned, as author Susan Jeffers suggests in her must-read book, to “Feel the Fear and Do it Anyway®.” Fear is more of a signal that we should stay alert and cautious. We can feel fear, but we can still move forward anyway. Think of fear as a 2-year-old child who doesn’t want to go grocery shopping with you. Because you must buy groceries, you’ll just have to take the two year old with you. Fear is no different. In other words, acknowledge that fear exists but don’t let it keep you from doing important tasks. Also realize that so many of our fears are self-created. We might frighten ourselves by fantasizing negative outcomes to any activity we might peruse or experience. Luckily, because we are the ones doing the fantasizing, we are also the ones who can stop the fear and bring ourselves into a state of clarity and peace by facing the actual facts, rather than giving in to our imaginations. If a fear is too great for you to overcome, try breaking it down into smaller challenges. Try starting out by doing the parts of the project that don’t scare you so much. You need to give a speech in front of a large group? Try giving your speech in front of a small group of people who care for you. Work your way up until you are able to feel the fear but still move forward. As you do you will build your confidence and eventually you won’t feel fear surrounding those issues because you’ll have done them enough to count it as a skill. As you move toward your goal, don’t attach yourself so much to the outcomes. Keep moving toward your dream doing everything you can to create what you want, then let it go and see what shows up. Sometimes the universe will have a better idea in mind for you and present a better opportunity when you were expecting something completely different. Don’t let fear keep you from moving forward. Even if the horrible outcome that you imagined happens, the universe will always provide for you another way to succeed. So be on the look out! Trust that no matter what occurs, you are smart enough and strong enough to keep looking for, and attracting, opportunities. If you are willing to try new experiences in spite of your fears, then more new experiences will present themselves for you to try. And the more you try, the more you are likely to succeed! © 2009 Jack Canfield * * * Are you ready to let go of any fears and limiting beliefs I'll help you erase any misconceptions, fear or beliefs that you may have run your life up until now, and then give you the tools to acquire literally anything you want for yourself when you participate in Breakthrough to Success, August 9-15th! * * * If you missed previous issues of Success Strategies, WANT TO USE THIS ARTICLE IN YOUR E-ZINE OR WEB SITE? |
