Break Through Your Fears to Achieve Your Dreams

4. Here's a critical and proven point. Beliefs are never neutral. They either move you forward or hold you back, but you choose what to believe. The way to move from limiting beliefs that hold you back to empowering beliefs that move you forward is through willingness, courage and practice. Be willing to believe in yourself and your dreams have the courage to act on what you believe. Develop this as part of your identity by practicing this behavior continuously until it becomes true.

5. Are you aware of what typically stops you? For most of us, it has to do with something we dislike, are not good at, or that we have no idea how to tackle. It can be frightening and when that task is essential to the success of your venture, it could be your demise. Don't allow one need or issue to destroy your dream. Here are some options.

• Identify the block or area of concern.
• Decide if you are going to tackle it yourself.
• If not, find someone who can do it with or for you.
• Hire them or trade for something they need.
• Get back into action on the areas where you excel.

If your dream is to write a book but you can't type or are computer-phobic, this doesn't have to stop you. Learn a new skill or hire someone. If you can't afford that, explore bartering. If you are branching out into a new areas and lack knowledge or experience, educating yourself is essential, but does it make more sense to take a class or would it be faster and easier to find a mentor? Get creative and get going. The time you waste worrying would best be used seeking guidance and finding answers.
