When the voice of fear hampers you, agree with it quickly and move on. When you just agree with your fear, it stops screaming so loudly in your mind and you can receive the next message of inspiration that you need.

So let’s say you want to write a screen play about your life. Your fear screams, “You can’t do that! You’ve never written a screen play. It’s incredibly difficult and takes years to complete.” You say, “Ok, well, that’s probably true. But what would a person who wanted to do that do next?” or “If I was someone who could write a screenplay, how would I proceed?” So, it’s almost like you’re just fantasizing, just playing around. That let’s your ego – which houses your fear – take a break. You see, it’s only trying to protect you. So when you agree with it quickly, it’s job is done and it can rest while you let your creative side explore the possibilities of your desire.

So, agree with your fear then act as if you’re successful already. Let your fantasies run wild. What you can mentally accept is YOURS. But when you let your fears cut off your dreaming before it can really get going – you stop the creative process. Look at your fear as something that’s just trying to protect you from failure, then it’s a little easier to just agree with it in order to quiet the rumblings and then move onto your big dreams.
