CHAPTER 15

HOW TO OUTWIT THE SIX GHOSTS OF FEAR

"I refuse to let family and friends pull me down into their 'RAT HOLE'."

"I will continue to follow my DREAM of helping people who want my free help in teaching them;
'How to Think not What to Think'."

As a young child growing up, I was always told; "A child should be seen and not heard" - afraid to speak up now.

As a teenager, my father was janitor at a country school of 3 class rooms, cafeteria, and a small gym and it was my
job to dust mop all the floors everyday after school and mow the 7 acre school yard. He also had the job of mowing
the grass and trimming around the monuments in a 10 acre cemetery. I received no pay for any of this. I never got to
learn about how to handle money as a young man-poverty.

And now as I share my new found passion with some of my family and friends, they tell me; "You will never be able to
surround yourself with positive minded people and be prosperous". So I am parting myself from them and saying my self-
talks even more times a day and praying to God for guidance several times a day.

I BELIEVE that with love from my wife, the love from this fabulous group of people, and the love of God that I will be able
to surround myself with positive minded people and to be prosperous.

CHAPTER 15
HOW TO OUTWIT THE SIX GHOSTS OF FEAR

Thank You Bev Bojarski for writing such a beautiful lesson on the six ghosts of fear. Your lesson made so much sense to me and really made me think about the necessity to take inventory of my life and decisions. Thank you Michael for reading it on Monday.

I needed this chapter just now as a chapter in my life closes and a new one opens. I am finishing my college classes this week, and I will graduate on the 17th. Of course, friends are asking when I'm going to get a job.

I don't want a job. It has always been my dream to work from home . . . at least since I've had 2 children to raise. I want to be home when my children come home from school. I want my children to be able to create beauty that I sometimes have to fix or clean up. I want to be the best loving and caring mom that I can be.

My ghosts of fear have made me indecisive in the past. I OWN THAT I WILL NOT ALLOW THEM TO TAKE HOLD OF ME WITH FEAR AND STOP ME FROM ACCOMPLISHING MY DREAM!

It is my dream to continue to build a successful, growing network marketing team. Working from home and owning my life.

I didn't know what that meant in the past. The beliefs of my family and friends have encouraged me to stay in prison. Right now God has given me provision so that I don't have to work. As I continually build and support my team I will have a growing abundance.

I'm thankful for this Mastermind group and this mental cleanse. I thank my mentor Darlene for encouraging me to be here from day one to learn and grow. With the love, support and encouragement I have gotten where I am today. My ghosts haven't stopped me dead in my tracks at all. I am learning and growing because I am here and write my lessons regularly.

I will take every opportunity to grow my business. I am so thrilled I will meet Michael and Linda in a couple of weeks. I know that this will grow my business even faster and stronger than any choice I could make.

I will outwit the ghosts of fear. I will say my self-talk daily. I will be a successful business woman and mom.

I am thankful for this loving and caring place that I have found to learn the skills I need to be successful in my life and business.

Thanks so Much!

CHAPTER 15
HOW TO OUTWIT THE SIX GHOSTS OF FEAR

This chapter explains the six different fears we can suffer from in our failures in life.  Throughout the
chapter you can see that all those fears are the result of negativity.

My biggest fear has always been the fear of criticism.  What will "they" think if I don't get this right? 

I spent 20 years in the military as an officer in the communications and electronics field, I was officialy
a Communications and Electronics Engineer despite the fact that I did not have an Engineering degree, I had
a BSc in maths and physics.  I am convinced now that I used this fact to excuse my lack of progress.  In 20
years I was promoted only once.  I was enroled as a Lieutenant due to my University degree and four years
later I was promoted to Captain, it was vertually automatic.  If you kept you nose clean, you got promoted.

I think I did a pretty good job.  At one point I was in charge of the operations and maintenance of a
NORAD long range radar site in Sioux Lookout, Ontario.  The rest of my career was spent at HQs in Ottawa
and WInnipeg.  After retiring from the militaqry, I spent 16 years as Systems Manager for the computer
networks within the Department of National Defence.

I'll tell you something, the colours training would have been invaluable during my whole career.  People
management was not something the military spent much time on.  They gave you all the technical training you
needed but nothing on how to deal with people.

INDECISION, DOUBT, and FEAR! ----  Wow, that is certainly the root of all my lack of success.  I was always
plagued with indecision and doubt.  I used the excuse that I didn't know enough to make the right decision,
what can I say I'm green, we never have enough information???

No more, I know I have improved.  I find that I don't procrastinate as much, I tend to do thing when they
need doing more often lately.  I have MFF, the mental cleanse, Michael, Linda and this wonderful mastermind
to thank for this improvement.

Love

Roger

Chapter 15
     Our “subtle enemies” of INDECISION, DOUBT, and FEAR sometimes “remain hidden in the subconscious mind, where they are difficult to locate, and still more difficult to eliminate”. We have to identify them at their root, remove them, and replace these enemies with our friends- WILL-POWER, DEFINITE MAJOR PURPOSE, DECISION, BURNING DESIRE, and MIND CONTROL. “Mind control is the result of self-discipline and habit. You either control your mind or it controls you. There is no halfway compromise. The most practical of all methods for controlling the mind is the habit of keeping it busy with a definite purpose, backed by a definite plan”.
     The message to me from this section is- Have the willpower and self-discipline to set a habit of using personal positive self talk to reprogram my mind. Make the decision to do whatever it takes to achieve my definite purpose. Make a definite plan, commit to that plan, and take action. I know I have “spiritual forces of sufficient power to enable me to keep my mind free from all forms of FEAR”.
     My current hurdle is fanning the flames of my wants and needs in order to ignite a BURNING DESIRE that will carry me through anything that tries to stop me. I know that MFF is the next part of the plan for my purpose in life. I know that Infinite Intelligence has always made plans for me. I can look back and see example after example of those plans. For example, when I graduated from college in 1977 it was extremely difficult to find a job. Many of my professors had tried to talk me into going on and becoming an engineer since my teaching degree was in mathematics and physics. I knew that I was meant to be a teacher. They kept telling me that the surplus of teachers would cause me to be unable to find a job. I told them that I WOULD find a job if I had to go to Alaska. For a girl for Alabama that would have been an extreme change!But I would have gone anywhere that it took for the job.
     My plan was to apply to school systems in Alabama, Mississippi, and Tennessee at first and then to expand the search if necessary. Of all the applications I sent out, only Tuscaloosa City and Tuscaloosa County called me for interviews (110 miles from my home). Each system had 4 or 5 openings and I was hired by Tuscaloosa County. After I signed the contract with them I got calls from several other schools closer to home. Why was it in the plan for me to go to Tuscaloosa? That is where I met my husband Sam. It was meant to be. When he came with me to my hometown for the first time, I was showing him around town. We drove past this little playground/park. He had “seen” it by his sixth sense in a dream. Confirmation of what we already knew- God’s purpose had been to put us together. We will be married 33 years in June.
     I could go on and on with examples like this in our life. I am so thankful to Michael and Linda and all of the MFF and Mental Cleanse Mastermind for pointing the way to “power that will enable you to throw off discouragement, master fear, overcome procrastination, and draw freely upon your imagination”.

Chapter 15 – How to Outwit the Six Ghosts of Fear
Fear in any form really is about how we think.  In fact,
everything we do depends on how we think. 
We can either build ourselves up or we can tear ourselves
down.  And most of us have been tearing ourselves down
for the majority of our lives. 
Our self talk has been telling us all the negative
things we do and downplaying the good and positive things
we do.  Until we change the program we have set for ourselves
we will live in a state of fear.  And it does not matter what
the fear is because any fear will hold us back.
We all recognize the logo “Mentoring for Free – Where you
learn how to think not what to think.”
Well, getting rid of fear takes thought and decision
backed by action.
I was disgusted with myself once I understood my fear
of not speaking up on the calls was basically a fear of
criticism which is really selfishness because I was
more concerned about how I felt rather than how the other
person felt. 
I then made my decision and backed it up with action.  Was it easy?
No, not at first.  But it eventually changed my life.
Living under any kind of fear is letting everyone, everything and anything
live our lives for us.  We were not made to live like that.
We were made in the image of our creator and He does not live
in fear and neither should we. 
I changed my programming and My self talk is:
“I am happy, confident and grateful because God
is blessing me and I am a positive example and influence
in all areas of my life”.
