INSPIRING LIFE SCHOOL PODCAST

EPISODE 45 TRANSCRIPT:

FEAR IS A ONE-SIDED FENCE

 

 

Here I will be sharing with you a chapter from my book WHAT WILL IT TAKE FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND? 50 Truth Bombs to Change Your Life.

The lessons from this book also form the backbone for my MINDFUL LIVING MASTER COURSE.

But today I am sharing with you a free chapter today because I believe so strongly that this is information that every person in this world would benefit from learning.

This book WHAT WILL IT TAKE FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND is different from all the other personal development books.

 

It focuses less on “what you need to DO or CHANGE” to make your life super fabulous and more on “what you need to UNDERSTAND” to make your life more manageable and special.

 

If you find that you are always fighting things rather than living in peace and going with the flow, this book will highlight 50 truth bombs that you need to understand to free yourself from that constant pain, suffering and torment cycle.

This book is the wake-up call you desperately need.

To live well and have more clarity and understanding in our life, we really need to embrace these truth bombs.

So are you ready now to change your life?

Are you ready now to understand?

So here goes: the lesson or chapter today is called: 

 

FEAR IS A ONE-SIDED FENCE

 

Like many people in this world I have been afraid of many things in my life and seriously felt the consequences of fear. 

At times I have allowed this fear to immobilise me, defeat me and keep me trapped in the same spot for way too long, filled with a sense of regret, shame and pain. 

 

Then one day I heard the phrase: fear is a one-sided fence and the truth bomb starting flashing straight away.

 

These five words so eloquently summarise the truth about fear. 

Fear is nothing more than an obstacle that stands in the way of our progress. 

We need to overcome our fears in order to move forward because everything we want is on the other side of that fear. 

 

It is only when we make it to the other side and look back at this fence that we realise the truth.

 

The thing we feared the most in life is actually gone! 

Fear doesn’t even exist on this other side.

It was just a feeling and we can get over it, simply by taking a leap over that metaphorical fence.

 

Think about all the things you fear in life…

 

  • You aren’t really scared of the dark – you are afraid of what you may find in it.

 

  • You aren’t really scared of heights – you are afraid of falling and getting hurt.

 

  • You’re not really scared of people – you are afraid of being rejected or embarrassed.

 

  • You aren’t really scared of commitment – you are afraid of being unwanted or loved back.

 

You need to recognise that fear is not real – it is simply a product of the thoughts you create and living in fear is not living at all. 

 

Don’t let your fear of what could happen make NOTHING happen.

You need to let your faith be bigger than your fear.

Let your life and choices reflect these hopes and dreams.

 

Decide you want these hopes and dreams more than you fear anything else.

 

What would you try if you had no fear?

Honestly what would you do?

Think about the simplicity and enormity of this one question. 

 

Your largest fear carries your greatest growth so you need to stop letting these fears rule your life. 

 

I understand if you are cautious of danger because danger is real but fear is a choice.

And you should never let your fears decide your fate. 

The fears you don’t face become your limitations.

 

There’s an excellent chance everything you are after is on the other side of that one-sided fence. 

 

All the treasures you want, all the wonders you seek, all the dreams you hope to fulfil – they are all within your reach if you are willing to feel the fear and do it anyway. 

Be willing to put those fears aside so you can LIVE your life.

I truly believe our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate but that we are powerful beyond measure. 

 

It is time to prove to the world just how courageous and powerful you really are.  

 

So, I hope you found this mini episode to be helpful.
