A strange thing happens when you begin to practice the law of attraction. As you begin to open the paths necessary to receive that which you desire, the ugly dragon we call fear rears it's head in an attempt to hold us back. We now see the path clearly and the universe is now making the resources available to us,however it frightens us to think about the amount of growth, self-discipline, and responsibility required to accomplish the tasks. Our fears tell us that we're too weak, too dumb, too unlucky, too ugly, too shy, too poor, too lazy and too cowardly to accomplish the goals we desire. Fear is the opposite of Love. Love is that which tells us we are strong, intelligent, lucky, outgoing, wealthy, energetic and brave! Love is the emotion which destroys fear. If there is an obstacle of fear on your path to success, you must face it head on, holding your deepest love for yourself and others in mind. If you actually face most of your fears you will find that the thing that you fear happening is usually an illusion. Fear is the belief that we might not be able to have something we need. We need air so we fear drowning. We need love so we fear rejection. We need to pay our bills so we fear the lack of money. Here's the kicker. That which you fear, you attract toward you! This is the basic principle in the law of attraction. That which you hold as your dominant thoughts and feelings becomes you reality. Therefore if you are holding the fear of not having enough money in your mind, then that is what will manifest in your reality. If, however, you replace the fear of not having enough money with an absolute love and passion for your personal finances and wealth, you will begin to manifest that which you are in alignment with. You must create a vivid image in your mind of who you wish to become! If you were already wealthy how would you act? What kind of habits would you have if you were wealthy? What would you wear? What kind of car would you drive? What does your house look like? How do you treat you friends and family? Are you confident? Are you intelligent? Are you willing to give people more than they expect from you? Go deep within yourself and define who you are! Do not wait for some great revelation to tell you what your purpose is. It is your responsibility to decide what your calling is. What brings you joy. What about you brings joy to others. Wealth is simply a reflection of the value we bring to a given market. You may be able to provide more value than you realize in forms you had not previously thought about. To do what one loves to do and get payed to do it, seems to be somehow unattainable to most of us. However if you truly desire a specific experience and apply the law of attraction, you will begin to be compensated for doing what you love to do!
Remember, our biography is not our destiny. What is happening in our lives now is the result of what we have been thinking and being up to this point in time. And make no mistake about it, you have created the the reality you are currently in, and until you take responsibility for this you can not begin to make the changes necessary for becoming the new higher image of your self. All of the greatest people in our history have had the courage necessary to be themselves! They overcame the fear of what others might think about them. They overcame the fear of possible failure. They overcame the fear responsibility. They understood that in order to become the image of themselves that new to be true in their minds, they simply had to believe that they already were that image. When you believe that you already are what you are becoming, you will find the courage to overtake any obstacle, for you know that it has already been overcome by the future you! So simply act your part and read your lines. Hold fast to the thought of who you have defined as the next grandest version of the greatest vision you have ever held about who you are. If you do not decide who you are, the world will decide for you, and that is slavery. In order to enjoy true freedom, we must be free in body, mind and spirit. It does us no good to be wealthy if we are miserable emotionally. In fact, true wealth does not come unless we are healthy emotionally. Emotion is energy in motion. This is how the law of attraction works. Your emotions are very powerful thoughts which radiate out from you and the universe responds to that by attracting to you more of that type of energy. This is why those who live in fear actually draw what they fear toward them. If however you shape your current reality into a state of abundance and love, you will begin to attract more abundance and love.
So overcoming fear is simply a matter of getting clear on exactly what it is that we want, developing strong positive emotions around that goal and allowing those emotions to drive our actions while facing down our fears. Our fears are usually over-exaggerated by our imaginations anyway. How many times have you dreaded a certain task however upon completion realized that it wasn't so bad. Kind of like the shot at the doctor's office, the fear of the shot is much more painful than the shot itself. I used to have a great fear of managing my finances because of the fear that there wouldn't be enough money there if I actually kept accurate track of it. This was an insane and completely irrational fear and lead to my complete failure financially. However, once I face my fears surrounding money, I realized that it was my fear of taking responsibility of my money that was preventing me from receiving more of it. I decided that in order to become wealthy I had to replace my fear of organization with a love for it! Once I began to organize my finances and actually learn to love balancing my checkbook and living within a budget, I allowed for the receiving of even more money because my mind was now capable of handling it. I was now sending out the emotion of enjoying money instead of dreading it. This principle can apply to all areas of your life, including your health, relationships, intelligence, spirituality, and personal well-being.
Look deep within yourself and see how many of your beliefs are actually based in fear, I bet you'll be surprised. Start small and work your way up. Make a list of any area of your life which you are not completely happy with. Try to define that area as detailed as possible. Then write what you wish to replace that part of your life with and determine what fear has held you in the current state for so long. This is not an easy process, and we are not as honest with ourselves as we should be. We like to believe that we are already perfect. This is called self-righteousness. Do not allow your ego to stop you from improving your ego. Remember, there is only now. You are in a constant state of creation and constantly defining who you are in the face of that creation. Every moment is an affirmation of who you are. So hold fast to the image of your highest self and believe that you already are that which you desire to become. Re-create yourself in that image in every moment. Show the universe that you really are the special person you know yourself to be!
