R.I.S.E. WORDS: Day 107: DENY FEAR

FEAR IS A USELESS EMOTION ON THE PATH TO YOUR GOOD LIFE. And yet, it is a common, even prevalent, emotion for many, if not most, of us.

You would be hard pressed to list any positive attributes of fear. But the list of negatives associated with fear could literally number the hundreds. To name a few: fear thwarts constructive, creative thinking, fear paralyzes, fear hinders problem solving, fear creates procrastination, fear distorts reality, fear generates more of the same, fear attracts other similarly negative qualities and outcomes. And the list of negatives goes on and on.

Fear is conditioned within us over a long period of time and therefore generally can't be eliminated all at once. So what's a seeker of the Good Life to do? You can minimize fear simply by noticing it when it shows up and consciously choosing to remember it serves no constructive or useful purpose and can only block your good. Deny fear and affirm its opposite: courage, bravery, confidence, good outcomes etc.

In this way, and over time, you reduce the power of fear in your life and eliminate a major road block to your good life!


Now R.I.S.E. and REALIZE (your) INHERENT SELF-EXCELLENCE.
