Doubts, Fears and Faith

My first thought that comes to mind is, "Doubt bars the way"!
This enemy must be shown the door.
Notice the word, "ENEMY". I have seen this word broken down several ways. For example, the Enemay in-a-me, or by the play on the word, the inner-me. I like this way of looking at the term enemy. Why? Because, it puts the ball back in your hands, so to speak. It empowers you to do something about the inner me. If the inner me is not supporting you in achieving the success you want you need to teach the inner me some new ideas. What in the heck are you talking about? I am talking about the neverending dialogue that goes on in your mind. The enemy that is in-a-you, is the one who speaks of doubt and fear.
What if he was an ally and a friend?
What if he was trained by the best mentors in the world?
Today, I am speaking in general terms about our way of thinking or our philosophy about life. But, in my life I have learned that these habitual ways of thinking (or philosophies) are what determine our success in business, family and in just about every area of life.
Let's change the focus of the subject. Let's look at the opposite of doubt and fear. The opposite could be said to be faith. Faith is another word for belief or trust. It could also be called confidence. Confidence can be defined as trust, boldness, sure of oneself or being certain. So, our next question is, of what can we be certain? We can be certain of only that which is the truth. The fundamental or basic truths about life are what give us the boldness to act. Why are we bold when we know what action to take? Because, we are confident that the laws that govern success are in back of that action and we cannot fail if we apply the principle. A principle is a fundamental truth. It is a truth that all other truths Rest Upon.
In my journey through life I have sought out these truths. I have looked in many directions and in many schools of thought. Guess what? I began to see many of the same truths being repeated over and over again!
I invite you to travel with me on this road of life, and maybe we can share some of the insights we have glimpsed with each other. I try and take these truths and apply them to every aspect of my life. I have noticed that they are just as practical in business as well.
