5 Decisions to Shred Fear Out of Your Life

I have personally witnessed thousands of people worldwide imprisoned by fear.? They are trapped behind the bars of not being worthy of success and shackled to their past mistakes. Are you one of those prisoners? ?Have you been wrongly convicted and given a life sentence by the enemy of fear?? It??s time for you to break free!? How can you possibly break through the bondage that has kept you chained down and unable to move forward in years?? Make a decision.? That??s right.? You must make the decision that you will no longer be a slave to fear.

The original Hebrew root of the word ??decision?? means to cut off and get rid of.? It??s done. It??s finished.? No more. It??s decision time!? Take a deep breath and get ready to change your life with these five decisions that will shred fear out of your life.

Decision #1: Make the Shift

In the movie, ??Facing the Giants??, the coach cares enough about one of his players to get in his face and confront him about his fear. He sees that the player has the gift of leadership, but is wasting it.? The coach pushes the player and makes him go to a level where he??s never been.? He??s got to see beyond where he??s been by doing something that he??s never done.? At that point, the shift happens??the shift from the past to the present??from where he??s been to where he wants to go now.

A shift gets developed when you??re focused.? Lack of focus will kill your dreams! When you make that shift and get laser-focused, it??s guaranteed that you will achieve your goals and dreams.? Unfortunately, the biggest distractions in our lives that cause us to lose focus are other people.? These people don??t believe in you or your dream.? They are insecure dream stealers that won??t take the action for that shift in life to happen.? There??s only one thing to do when you are surrounded by these types of people??get away!? If they are family or close friends, then it??s time to love them, leave them and show them.? Let them know that you love them but you have to take time for yourself to achieve your dreams and then your action that you show them in pursuit of your goals and dreams will greatly change how they see you.? What happens next?? The shift!

Decision #2: Take Ownership of Your Why

One of the top things that you must do to get fear out of your life is take ownership of your Why, which is your ultimate purpose. It??s the reason you get out of bed every day.? When you take ownership of your Why, you own it no matter what happens, no matter what occurs each and every day. It??s your Why and nobody can take that from you!? Your Why is the insurance that backs up your goals and dreams. There??s no way that you can give up on your daily quest to achieve your goals and dreams if have taken full ownership of your Why.

You have to protect your Why, because it??s yours and you own it.? If someone walked into your home and started taking your valuables, I have no doubt that you would stop them, because it??s your stuff!? You own it!? However, why do most people allow the naysayers to steal your Why on a daily basis?? It??s simple.? They haven??t taken true ownership of their Why in life.? You have to fight for your Why like you would fight for your belongings. If you have someone in your life trying to take your Why away from you, the get rid of them.? Like I said before, love them, leave them and show them.? It??s your Why so take some action to protect it!

Decision #3: Make Your Pledge

A pledge is a declaration, a solemn vow.? ? It??s your responsibility to make a pledge to yourself and your Why to be the very best that you can get every single day.? When you make a declaration to yourself and everyone around you that you will not give up on your Why, fear will flee!? There??s no room for fear if you are truly committed to your Why!

That??s right.? I said a commitment! Your pledge is a formal commitment.? It doesn??t waiver or falter during the tough times.? Your pledge causes you to lead by example with your attitude, words, ethics, and values.? Your pledge is the driving force behind your Why.? It pushes you and serves as a constant reminder about your commitment.

With the confrontation and resistance that constantly bombard us in society, your pledge will be challenged.? You will be pressured to give up, because the world says that your pledge is not realistic. What do you do? When you get pushed, push back hard and speak your Why in the face of the enemy.? You have made pledge, a vow, to your Why and you must refuse to let anyone cause you to doubt it.? Remember, you??ve made the shift in your life to go to the next level, you??ve taken ownership of your Why, and now your pledge to your Why is in place.? So, what??s next?

Decision #4: Build Your Mastermind Team

Your mastermind team is your support system.? They empower you to prosper in every area of your life no matter what obstacles stand in your way or the adversity that you face. Now, close your eyes and visualize who is on your mastermind team.? Does that image make you smile or does it cause you to realize why you are failing in various areas of your life?

If the people on your mastermind team do not add value you to your life and encourage you to go after your dreams, then it??s time for a change.? An unmotivated, discouraging mastermind team will ruin your chances of ever achieving your ultimate Why in life.? These types of people are selfish and their motives are very different than yours. Fear will constantly consume you if you continue to allow these people to negatively affect your life.

What if you have no one in your closest circle of influence that you would ask to be on your mastermind team? Well, it??s time for you to venture outside of that circle and meet some new people that have similar goals and dreams. The Lifestyle Freedom Club is the #1 success and motivation club in the world, and the members are motivated champions just like you!? Check out this amazing place to build your mastermind team at www.LifestyleFreedomClub.com.? No fear exists in this club!

Decision #5: Create a Solid Foundation

When a house is built, a lot of time is spent laying the foundation.? If the foundation is not solid, then the house will eventually crumble.? Similarly, you cannot achieve your Why in life without a solid foundation of commitment.? Your Why will fall apart and become unachievable if you are not seriously committed.

Imagine your commitment as the foundation of your Why house.? The windows are your daily action steps, the walls are your habits, the roof consists of your mastermind team, and so on.? Do you realize how easily this entire structure will fail if your commitment is shaky?? It might be stable for a while but it will eventually fall down around you.

You also strengthen your foundation by continuing to grow your roots deeper and deeper.? Your roots are developed by immersing yourself in personal development ? listening to motivational CDs, reading inspirational books, etc.? Your belief in yourself and your ability to achieve your Why will skyrocket when you create that daily habit of learning.? As your belief builds, your roots grow and your foundation becomes more solid.

I??m often asked if it??s okay to take some time off.? When you stop your daily success habits and take a break from your personal development, cracks will start to develop in your foundation.? Even the slightest little crack will allow the weed of fear to sprout through and endanger your Why.? If you are truly committed to the achievement of your Why in life, then you should absolutely no desire to take a break from your success journey.

Now, let??s recap??

Decision #1: Make the Shift

Decision #2: Take Ownership of Your Why

Decision #3: Make Your Pledge

Decision #4: Build Your Mastermind Team

Decision #5: Create a Solid Foundation

Now, it??s your turn!? Take action today and make these five decisions to get rid of the fear that is haunting you and preventing you from going forward in life.? Don??t let the enemy of fear win.? You are a Champion and you can defeat fear!

10 Life Lessons On How To Find Your Why NOW & Achieve Ultimate Success – Lesson 2 (4 of 4)

Once the cement is hardened, it remains that way forever with proper maintenance. In the same way, once your commitment hardens in your mind and heart, it will remain that way. It’s up to you to keep the naysayers, your negative past and other discouraging factors from defacing your commitment before it is hardened into a strong foundation in your heart and mind. I’m a New Yorker, but I like the song of the wide-open West, “Home on the Range.” I like it mainly because of one line, “where never is heard a discouraging word.” Think about that. Do you care enough about your own success to live in an environment that contains no discouragement? Are you so committed to your future that you will surround yourself with people, books, CDs and movies that encourage rather than discourage you?

Never forget that the power of your commitment is one of the greatest factors in your life. Your commitment to success or your commitment to your cycle of failure will determine whether or not you achieve your life long dream. Let’s try to understand this. The word “power” means the authority to take control over. You need to take control and authority over your lack of commitment in the past and recommit to your achievement of your goals and dreams. If you are a success maniac like me, then commit yourself
to your own future. This type of commitment gives you both the right and the power to achieve your ultimate Why in life. Behind every Champion’s achievement of their Why is a strong and solid commitment. When you’re on track and have commitment as hard as cement, your foundation doesn’t move around. Yes, you’re hard-headed. You’re solid as a rock! You are going for it! You’re making decisions like a committed Champion!

That’s where it all starts to come together and before you know it, your life takes off like a space shuttle and people standing around suddenly jump back, look startled and say, “Whoa! What happened? What’s going on with you?” What they’re seeing is the blast-off of your success rocket, the manifestation of your commitment. That’s why commitment is one of the most important keys to success. Remember, your commitment is the foundation, and it’s your decisions that will determine whether or not your foundation will crack in the midst of life’s storms.

10 Life Lessons On How To Find Your Why NOW & Achieve Ultimate Success – Lesson 2 (1 of 4)

The Power of Commitment

Few things in life have as much power as commitment. Commitment turns average or inactive people into what the military calls a full metal jacket (a bullet that can penetrate great obstacles). The character trait of commitment does that. It gives our dream the full metal jacket that it needs in order to punch through obstacles. In fact, I would say that commitment is the foundation for building your life. It is the bedrock of achieving your ultimate Why in life. Let me ask you a question. Are you truly committed to achieving your dreams and goals in life? I’m sure you said “Yes.” OK, let me ask you an easier question. Have you invested in the seven highlighters that I recommended in the last lesson?

If you haven’t made the commitment to complete the exercises in Lesson One of this book, then stop right now, go back and do it. You cannot expect to achieve the maximum results of this material if you are not committed to achieving these results. In order to achieve your ultimate goals and dreams in life, you must have a starting point and take action. I know this sounds a little harsh, but as your coach I must and will hold you accountable for your actions and your failure to take action. My ultimate goal is to assist you in achieving your Why in life. At times I am like a drill instructor whose purpose is to turn green recruits into full metal jackets. I am very serious about helping you to Find Your Why and Fly. I hope you are serious enough to “Just Do It.”

What is Commitment?

Commitment is a serious, even sacred, pledge to do or be something. It is hammer-hard determination to achieve. Like a full-metal jacket bullet, it is so focused on the goal that it blows right through the obstacles and distractions. Commitment takes us beyond comfort zones and personal indulgences. The Oxford English Dictionary actually says that commitment is “an engagement or obligation that restricts freedom of action.” Think about that. Being committed to a goal means we have to give up some of our freedom. For example, if I’m committed to investing twenty percent of my income, I may have to give up the freedom to buy all the latest electronic toys. If I’m going to lose forty pounds in the next six months, I may be forced to give up my freedom to have a glass of milk and cookies before I go to bed.

Are you committed – REALLY COMMITTED – to your own success? Is that commitment strong enough to finish reading this book? Be honest. How many books have you bought and not read? How many books have you cracked open, read a few pages and then stuck on the shelf? Now, I’m going to challenge you to read this book…every lesson, every word. Upon completion of reading each lesson of this book, write a summary of it in your learning journal. A learning journal doesn’t have to be anything fancy. A basic notebook will do. It is critically important to write down what really hits you out of each lesson. I also refer to this as brain-spilling. Regularly and frequently summarizing each lesson is the best way to get life-changing truth off the page and into your heart and mind. By reading it, writing it down and reviewing it frequently, you internalize it. You take possession of it. You take ownership of the truth that will set you free!

17 Highly-Guarded Strategies to Close Every Sale – Strategy #1: The Fear of Closing (2 of 2)

I am under the assumption that you are marketing an ethical and moral product. When you have an ethical and moral product that will change someone’s life, then you have a right to earn huge income through that product. You notice that I did not say “make money”. Everyone that strives to just make money is usually broke. If you desire to earn a huge income so that you can change your life and the lives of others, then success is inevitable.

If you have a fear of closing, then you have to develop within you the ability to overcome that fear by developing yourself. Without your belief structure, you can learn every how-to in the world of sales and still not succeed. I have outsold numerous so-called experts and coaches in the speaking world and online. It wasn’t because I had any type of advantage that they didn’t have. Let me explain something to you. Focus on this. I outsold them, because I out-believed them.

I absolutely believe in my products and services, which is self-development, motivation, success strategies, internet lead generation, and marketing strategies. I absolutely believe that my products and services will change people’s lives, empower them, and equip them to fulfill their goals and dreams in life. It is my foundational belief in my products and services that empowers me to overcome the fear of closing and outsell nearly everyone else in the industry.
