"We love our limitations! We must, because we certainly don't want to let them go" ~Jinny Ditzler By definition a limitation is, "something that limits." When we let go of what limits us we create a new possibility. This new possibility represents our future. Being stuck in old habits and beliefs prevents us from moving forward and realizing new goals and new ambitions! In order to reach the goals you established last week you may need to say good-bye to an old habit or routine -- a limitation. In releasing F.E.A.R. we let go of limitations and lack, and step into abundance. As we step into abundance we are free to manifest our dreams and desires and achieve our goals. Make It Happen This week face your F.E.A.R. - head on - and walk past it. Release the limitations of the past and feel light and free. Use the exercise below to help you identify your F.E.A.R's and the cost of those fears. Take a sheet of computer paper, holding it horizontally; fold it into three equal sections. Label the columns as show below. Goals/Dreams/Aspirations F.E.A.R. Cost Write a book People will think I'm stupid World doesn't get to hear my voice I don't have enough time Feel like I failed without trying It won't be any good I can't publish it Run a Marathon I don't have enough time Never push myself physically I will injure myself Feel like I failed without trying If I lose weight then I'll gain it back fast Notice for each dream how many F.E.A.R.'s we actually have! No wonder few of us ever accomplish that which we truly desire. This week examine each F.E.A.R. -- are they real? What is the cost of each F.E.A.R.? It is when we see the cost that we become motivated to let go of our limiting beliefs. Good luck this week...remember this is a process, be patient with yourself.

This Week's Topic: Let Go of Limitations This works in our personal life, too. When we want so badly to make a change we need to realize the cost of not changing, let go of the fear and take action. Really, what is F.E.A.R? It is False Expectations Appearing Real! Like noise in a dark room...is it a monster or the air flowing through the ducts? It is easy to be stuck in the past when we don't realize the cost of our limitations. What if the cost of being afraid of the dark meant that you never got sleep? That would be a pretty high price!
Dear Friend,
For example, when we resist corporate change we can spend lots of energy gossiping about what is ahead rather than taking action. What if we accept - there will be change - and develop a couple of different plans for how to deal with the change? See the difference ... one is spinning our wheels on "what if" ... resisting "what is" and the other is creating action regardless of the outcome. The limiting belief in this example might be "change is bad" or "fear of change."
May you be blessed for you are a blessing!
