On my License to Succeed Podcast today we discussed the brain / mind / body connection demonstrated with vibration (brain waves), neural path ways, and “molecules of emotion” (chemicals sent into the body as directed by the brain).
I just received my May 2008 copy of the Terry Dean Monthly Mentor Club today, and I’ve already read it from cover to cover (11 pages of copy) and highlighted lots of great information.
If you remember I posted and did a podcast on the last issue. April’s Issue was a wonderful 30-Day Promotional Planner for blogging, covering everything from search engine optimization to social bookmarking.
In the March Issue, Terry describes in great detail how to set your Internet business on automatic so that it runs with a team and minimal effort from you. On page 11 is a wonderful mind map for Choosing Slam Dunk Markets – detailing out the different steps for researching, testing, comparing profitable products and markets.
List Building is the topic in the February 2008 issue…You’re just gonna have to subscribe!
Listen to this episode of the Get More Business Podcast to learn more about Terry Dean’s Internet LifeStyle System. and the Monthly Mentor Club Newsletter.

You cannot be a thought leader if the words you use to express yourself sound like what everyone else is saying on the subject. In the beginning “they” think you are crazy, until everyone else catches up with your pioneering thoughts - then “they” call you a “Thought Leader”. — Melody Campbell, Inspiration Coach

Fear and other strong emotions that come with it are very powerful and not to be ignored. In fact you must REFUSE to allow yourself to be afraid.
The good news is that fear begins with and can be controled by thought. You and you alone are in charge of what you think.
From Dr. Don Colbert’s book Deadly Emotions: Understand the Mind-Body-Spirit Connection That Can Heal or Destroy You it reads,
“As in the case with all intense, toxic emotions, a chemical response occurs in the brain when a person experiences severe fear. This chemical activity excites these vital brain centers in particular - (the area of the brain that controls memory and helps the brain learn and retain information)……Fear and anxiety seem to occure on the same general spectrum. Fear is a concentrated, short term bout of anxiety. It’s the acute immediate “anxious” response.
…Some fears occur repeatedly in the same environment; in other words, certain experiences or circumstances always seem to trigger fear in a person. In these cases, the fear is called a phobia…Part of the definitiobn of a phobia is that it is a crippling fear. It keeps a person from moving about in society in a normal manner.
…When a person has a sudden attack of fear, the body responds with an intense and acute stress response; adrenaline flows into the bloodstream and immediately signals the body to go onb it’s highest level of alert to fight or flee. (When) the stress response does not shut down…hormones continue to pour into the body (causing) the cardiovascular or immune system to suffer damage.”
Realize that continuing to listen to reports of bad news can fuel the fear that paralyzes - both mentally and physically!
Watch and listen to Dr. Joe Dispenza describe “emotional addition.”
Stepping out of ones comfort zone to do something different or better during this time of reported “doom and gloom” can be frightening or stressful. Read what Napoleon Hill wrote about fear:
“Fear of poverty (or recession/depression) is a state of mind, nothing else! (He also says “a state of mind is something that one assumes. It cannot be purchased. It must be created.) Fear is sufficient to destroy one’s chances of achievement in any undertaking, a truth which becomes painfully evident during any time of economic difficulty and uncertainty. Fear of poverty (or recession/depression) paralyzes the faculty of reason, destroys the faculty of imagination, kills self reliance, undermines enthusiasm, discourages initiative, leads to uncertainty of purpose, encourages procrastination, wipes out enthusiasm, and makes self control impossible. Fear takes the charm from one’s personality, destroys the possibility of accurate thinking, diverts concentration of effort, kills persistance, turns willpower into nothingness, destroys ambition, beclouds memory, and invites failure in every conceivable form. It kills love and assassinates the finer emotions of the heart, discourages friendship, invites disaster in a hundred forms, leads to sleeplessness, misery and happiness and all this despite the obvious truth that we live in a world of over-abundance of everything the heart could desire, with nothing standing between us and our desires except lack of a definite purpose and the plans that derive from it.”
It’s so important to stand guard over what goes into and what goes on inside your mind.
You may be reading this and saying “not my problem,” but because of the environment of our economy right now you will be working with, doing business with, etc. other people that are overcome by fear.
It’s important to understand what happens to ourselves and others in this state of fear. Let’s set ourselves free from fear, let’s do our part to release others from fear.

Great occasions do not make heroes or cowards; they simply unveil them to the eyes. Silently and imperceptibly, as we wake or sleep, we grow strong or we grow weak, and at last some crisis shows us what we have become. -Bishop Westcott

This song is my life anthem.
What song best describes YOU, YOUR LIFE and YOUR BUSINESS? Post a comment and let me know.
We live in an age where we are bombarded with too much of EVERYTHING; mostly we are hit with too much information. Now the information we are hearing that there is a recession, we are in a supposed economic crisis and doomed to a life of barely survival. In light of all this information overload, telling us that we are doomed and that it will be getting worse - if we achieve anything at all - it is a miracle!
I’ve been listening to John Maxwell on “Developing the Leader within You.” One of the examples he uses describing how leaders become inaffective is the lion and the lion tamer.
The power that the lion tamer has over the lion is confusion and irritation. The reason that the lion tamer holds up a stool in the face of the lion is not because the lion has any fear of the stool - but rather because the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the stool as four separate things. The four legs of the stool confuse the animal until he’s paralyzed (rendered inaffective) with confusion and cannot attak the trainer. All the while the trainer snaps the whip in the face of the lion as a continued source of irritation - thus making the confusion and the paralysis worse.
You - Me - We are are powerful beyond measure, made in the likeness of the creator. It’s amazing how a little bit of powerless confusion can put an amazingly powerful beast into a state of paralyzed confusion. We live a life of quiet desparation, tolerating irritations and “too many things on my plate.” With no burning desire to act as a compass for all the environments of our life we creep through life in paralyzed confusion without realizing our amazing power.
With the confusion removed we are creative, abundant and productive - living in an abundant, fruitful universe.
One of the most powerful things we can do to not participate in this fear filled prophecy of recession is to put every area of our lives in order and remove sources of chronic irritation.
As a Life Success Coach I start by asking questions and having my clients look at the different areas of their life and making a list of the irritations that they are tolerating.
I guide my clients to start with the small irritations and eliminate them.
Does the dust on the furniture bother you? Then dust! Don’t keep walking about being irritated. How about the dishes in the sink? Don’t go to bed until you kitchen sparkles. When you wake up you will be refreshed to see a clear and clean kitchen.
How about this? I just bought a new computer. I didn’t realize until I had it for three months that my cd/dvd drive was not working. I put off dealing with it because I didn’t want to be without my computer if I had to send it back. I REALLY needed to install some software. I tried to make do for another two months. The missing software was starting to seriously affect my productivity.
Finally, taking my own advice, I saw that this was a simple irritation that I was not taking action on. I discovered that I had a feature on my computer that would allow me to chat with Dell’s online tech support. I logged on and described my problem. In less than 15 minutes I had a fully functional disk drive and was installing the software that I had been working without for now a total of 5 months!!
What are you tolerating personally or professionally that when solved could catapult you forward towards the success you’re chasing? Let me invite you to a complimentary session where we can discuss the possibility of unlocking your fully powerful potential. Together we’ll redefine your focus and bring the power back online in your life.
REFUSE to participate in the so called recession. Put the “lion tamer” out of the cage - I can hear you ROAR!
