CHAPTER 15
HOW TO OUTWIT THE SIX GHOSTS OF FEAR
Indecision blends with Doubt and becomes a dreaded Fear! This is a slow process and often develops unnoticed. What helps me most is when I live in the present moment, I have more clarity and have more awareness to detect this insidious Fear!
Fear(s) are a state of mind, therefore they Can Be Controlled! I do this through, yep, Self-Talk, living in Positive Emotions and living in the Present! At this point in the book the reader should have a good idea of How Important Self-Talk is to their Success in Life!
This paragraph from this chapter really hit home with me:
****FEAR OF POVERTY This fear paralyzes the faculty of reason, destroys the faculty of imagination kills off self-reliance, undermines enthusiasm, discourages initiative, leads to uncertainty of purpose, encourages procrastination, wipes out enthusiasm and makes self-control an impossibility. It takes the charm from one’s personality, destroys the possibility of accurate thinking, diverts concentration of effort, it masters persistence, turns the will-power into nothingness, destroys ambition, beclouds the memory and invites failure in every conceivable form; it kills love and assassinates the finer emotions of the heart, discourages friendship and invites disaster in a hundred forms, leads to sleeplessness, misery and unhappiness—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, excepting lack of a definite purpose.****
Read the above paragraph over several times and that should spur you to be proactively positive! Just look at the Many Ways fear destroys! Not what I want!!!
Worry is a state of mind based on Fear, it imbeds itself deeply, paralyzing reasoning, destroying self-confidence and initiative! I have a friend who is having a hard time coping with her thoughts based from her Fears from a disorder her mind suffers from. She is so focused on being afraid and worrying about things she has no control over. She is not opened to any form of positive reasoning, the fear is so imbedded within her.
I cringe at the thought of my negative emotions being passed onto others, having put others ahead of myself all my life. This has helped me to realize that I must “Do” for myself first, before I can or will be of help to others. This means keeping a positive mind and not reacting to others negativity. I need to scream “Run”, when I sense those who live in such negativity coming my way! At least until I can learn to effectively block their negativity from entering my thoughts! This is a process, one that I will be working on for a long time. As long as I am proactive in doing so, I will have success!
There is a price to not applying this chapter to my life, that price is Failure….nope it’s too high a price for Me!!!
Blessings,

Chapter 15 - How to Outwit the Six Ghosts of Fear
Fear can motivate us. Fear is negative. Napoleon Hills grouped all fears into one of six categories: POVERTY, CRITICISM, ILL HEALTH, LOSS OF LOVE OF SOMEONE, OLD AGE, and the fear of DEATH. In the second part of the chapter he discusses SUSCEPTIBILITY TO NEGATIVE INFLUENCES. He also listed the negative emotions, in an earlier chapter (12): The emotion of FEAR, JEALOUSY, HATRED, REVENGE, GREED, SUPERSTITION, and ANGER. After reading all of this it is clear that these fears, negative influences and negative emotions all form vicious circles of chains that bind and bound us down, keeping us hostage, if we let them. We must use the power of the positive emotions: DESIRE, FAITH, LOVE, SEX, ENTHUSIASM, ROMANCE and HOPE and the other techniques and principles we have learned.
Knowing that a speeding car is not likely going to be able to turn or swerve in time, we could flee.
I've read or listened to someone that the responses we demonstrate to various fears are always either FREEZE, FIGHT or FLIGHT. What happens when we freeze in front of that oncoming car? We certainly wouldn't consider, or at least not for very long, the notion that we might fight with it, right? Hopefully our mind is able to analyze the situation, using ALL of our SIX senses, and correctly motivates us to run, jump or dodge in plenty of time to avoid disaster or injury.
Nature or nurture? Are we born with certain fears? Certainly most, if not all, have been learned, rather than having been built into us.
Are we in a trance? Are we so bombarded that our brain rarely has a thought any more, that hasn't been planted by a text message, email, song, jingle, image, or worse, something that combines many of these, like television or a movie into one shotgun blast of blockage and damage? Even books, where our imagination is used to paint the pictures, sites and sounds we see provide either positives or negatives. Usually we are presented with both, at the same time. Luckily we can control the mechanism to reinforce the positive and reject the negative. If too much of the negative is passed through without being rejected, the pathways get clogged with obstructions, rerouted, or broken entirely. We then have to work all that much harder to clear the obstructions, reroute again, or even build from scratch, all over again. The great part of this, our incredible brain is resilient. As long as there remains one single glimmer of spark in our thoughts that is derived from OUR desires, we CAN build the paths again, one by one. Each building on the others until we fashion again a massive super highway network, working in concert and alignment for OUR desires.
Critical thinking is essential for us to discern what messages we let in, but we also have to have the confidence to know, that should things we didn't desire sneak into our brain, which they always seem to do, that we have the abilities to reinforce our desires.
It is being confident, yet humble, without being arrogant. We all still make mistakes and are not yet perfect in that regard. Also, it is participating to help others, thereby finding inspiration to solutions for our own challenges. Our physical and virtual mastermind groups are fertile oceans of energy that provide insight and inspiration to all those involved. We are alive, awake, alert, enthusiastic and find ourselves at higher and higher levels of positive emotional, mental, spiritual and physical vibrations of energy. We can achieve and overcome anything. We can evolve the whole ocean by remaining the perfect self, just the way we are, growing, together and individually.
with gratitude and in service,

Think and grow Rich
Ch 15 how To Outwit The Sixth Ghost of Fear
I'm running to a cliff, I've been on a long road and it has a gap in it. Should I do my best and jump?, maybe stop?, maybe jump in the gap?
I'm choosing to do my best and jump, now I'm in the air and everything turn dark, do I wonder what's under me? or do I fly?
I choose to spread my wings and fly, as I do a bright light shine into my face.
I close my eyes and keep flying, I'm flying so fast it feel like a roller coaster drop.
Suddenly it become easier to fly, and the light dim, as I open my eyes I see the ocean, I hear birds chirping, and the smell of fresh fruit.
When I look to see where I'm at I see the most gorgeous eyes, and feel a sense of peace.
A tear fall from my eyes, and I'm thankful.
WE made it, WE made it.
On this road I have learned so much, and sometimes... A lot of times things didn't go the way I want it to (Temporary defeat hill talks about) When this came along I knew I had to grow.
I want to have fun, meet a lot of people and travel the world enjoying life, and the day I wake up and see the woman I one day want to marry, and some day have my children, I know I will cry that day. It may not happen now, but I pray one day it will, until then, everything I have learned being here with Mentoring For Free, doing the 30 day cleanse, and the places I went in my mind, and the desires of my heart feel real and it has/will help carry me through. So until that day come I will keep going to the destination where dreams meet reality.
I haven't yet mastered faith, so I will never quit.
With much Love, Appreciation, and Gratitude.
Love Always

FEAR is the result of too much time spent dwelling on
impressions from the OUTER World - the world of the 5
senses.

FEAR is a NEGATIVE sponge which blocks the flow of
ENERGY between the SUBCONSCIOUS and the Conscious and
body. It also blocks the flow between the Subconscious
and the Infinite Mind of the Universe.

FEAR has about as much substance as the rainbow.

We conquer Fear by dwelling in the INNER World - the
still, peaceful, serene, blissful domain of pure
THOUGHT. We arrive there by quieting the
electromagnetic chatter of the Outer World and living
in The NOW.

There is only one sure way of forming new HABITS of
THOUGHT. By SUGGESTION.

Remember, ALL Suggestion is SELF-SUGGESTION. We
Consciously filter all the Suggestions of others and
pass some through to our SUBCONSCIOUS where they grow
hair. The Subconscious acts on whatever we send there
without judgment.

We must guard against the DEVIL’S WORKSHOP - the
Negative Suggestions of others.

PERSISTENTLY repeating carefully crafted SELF-TALK
forms new Habits of Thought within 28 days. Repeating
them beyond the Habit stage causes them to become
AUTOMATIC - an Unconsciously Competent way of life!

Your Friend and Servant,

Ken Klemm - Florida, USA

P.S. For those who have been brainwashed by those who
claim all this New Age stuff is of the Devil, here is
what the Master said: “Whoever has will be given more,
and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have,
even what he has will be taken from him.”

Thus did Jesus state the LAW OF ATTRACTION. Given more
what? Faith, Gratitude, Love, Happiness, whatever...

P.P.S. I normally do not edit my lesson after I post
it, but I received a word picture this morning I simply
MUST share with You:

Participating in the Mental Cleanse is like riding up
from the ground floor in an elevator car.  We in this
MASTERMIND are helping You push the Up button to
advance You to greater heights.

You must guard against allowing some of Your relatives
and old friends to ride in the car with us. These
denizens of the Devil’s Workshop are eager to press the
Down button and send You back to the ground floor where
You started, or worse - drag You down into the
basement.
