OfflineI am writing this in response to several active posts going on right now that have several people paralyzed with fear. We all have fears and struggles, I know I do for sure. I have from day one. But the thing that I have gotten better at is constantly focusing on the PRIZE or the Goal. If your goal is big enough whenever an obstacle gets in you way the goal can still be seen. Your goal should be the size of a mountain. You should eat, sleep, and breathe your goals, your dreams. Keep them in front of you. I have this little saying that I always tell myself when an obstacle gets in my way or I have a negative thought and fear creeps in. I suggest you use it too. Whenever I find myself telling myself "I can't afford it" or "I am not good enough to pull that big of a deal off" or "I am not smart enough" I always tell myself "I am blessed and highly favored" and then I go over all of the great blessings I have been given and say "thank-you". Don't even let the negative thoughts get started. Knock 'em down with "I am blessed and highly favored". We all have the seeds of greatness inside of us. Don't focus on your obstacles-FOCUS ON YOUR DREAMS!!!
You've got to find your obstacles and call them out! Unsheath the sword, and do battle with whatever it is that holds you back!
is exactly right! I have been posting thoughts along this line in my journal/blog over the past several days. The "mind game" is just as important (if not more) than all of the other things you learn in this - or any other - business.
Good thoughts! Thanks for sharing them. I showed my wife your tag line at the bottom last night and we both thought it was so cool..."call them out! Unsheath the sword..." LOVE IT!
(hey, a question off the topic...I've searced the forums and can't find the answer to this simple question....the little emblems you have...what do some of them mean? For example, "special contributor" and "super contributor" and also the "knowledge discovery"? The others are pretty self-explanatory. Thanks!)

Thank you for so patiently reminding us of this every little while. I know it should sink in after so many times, but for everyone new that is facing their fears, and for those of us that let them sneak back up on us sometimes, I want to say thank you. Again.

This is a great reminder for all of us. We truly are what we focus on. Focus on your goals, on your dreams on your daily successes. You will start to attract what you are focusing on. It is too easy to lose sight of what we really want. I love your affirmations bamagirl6730! I have my own that help me daily.
KEEP MOVING FORWARD
