Find the inspiration to defeat the storytellers

Everybody wants to succeed and everyone wants to try new
things. That is another simple fact of
our make up as human kind. However, we
also have worries and fears that can hold us back and prevent us from living at
our full potential. Worry and fear are
two negative emotions that continually eat away at your resolve, beliefs and
dreams. The longer that you give sway to
such emotions the easier it will be for those negatives produce a repeat
performance. Unless you learn to control
these two emotions, they will undoubtedly control you. You don’t want that. I don’t want that.

Worry and fear are storytellers and if you are willing to listen, you will believe the
lie. They will make every attempt to
turn you from you path and like all other negatives, they come easy (and die
hard), come frequently and come to you at a seconds notice.

Taking action is the stepping-stone to understanding and the
pushing these negatives out. If worry
and fear are telling you –not- to follow through with something your only
course of action should be to turn around and do exactly what it is that you
fear doing.

There are many ways to remove worries and fear from your
life and many of them require that you do what I stated earlier, to act.

  • Close the doors that let them in.
  • Seek out resources that will help you overcome them.
  • Always seek to be positive.
  • Trust in God.

 

For instance, always being afraid of calling my prospects
and worrying about their reaction to my call is a negative emotion. Moreover, it would only snowball if I did not
remove them (the emotions) and put positive emotions in their place by
acting. Make the call!

But what if they say no? A: What if they say yes?

Another door to negative thought closed and the positive
door opens. When those thoughts come to
you, they will frame a story for you. When the questions come in the form of doubt and concern ask yourself the
very opposite of the question that has you worried. Positive thought is harder to maintain and
takes time and effort but it is so worth it. Try it! I know you will like the
feeling you get when you have beaten back the concerns and have followed
through to enjoy the new direction. We
all have a direction for our lives and things we want to try but the
storytellers can get in the way. Do not
let them. Live your best life and be
confident knowing that worry and fear do not control you.
