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

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??
