Hi,
It's Guy and we're ready to look at our 29th key of our 31 keys to change your destiny.
This one's entitled Separate Facts from Fears.
I'm going to tell you a particular principle,
An insight,
That I tell you is as important as anything that we've studied together yet,
And you'll see how it all ties together.
For instance,
This 29th key is intimately connected to the 27th key where we talked about getting one thing done,
And how suddenly our imagination can turn that list into Goliath and we're David without a slingshot.
So here's that important insight.
Write it down if you want.
I would.
The insight is that there is no such thing as a psychological fear without negative imagination.
I'll repeat it even slower.
There is no such thing as any psychological fear without negative imagination.
What does that mean exactly?
When we look out and look at that list of things that has to get done or see something unfolding on the horizon in front of us,
Where is that fear that we feel in that moment?
Because the moment itself,
The fact of it,
Is what's taking place where we are,
Within what we are,
And nowhere else.
But something in us turns that moment,
That impression,
Into a time where we're not going to be able to get it done,
We're not adequate to the situation,
Something's going to happen and take something from us that we don't want to lose.
And every last one of those fears doesn't exist without our own mind having painted a negative picture and then looking at the picture that it painted going,
Oh my God,
Not that.
That's why we have to learn to separate facts from fears because when we can meet the moment we don't want and see that the only reason that we don't want it is because our own mind has told us what the moment is going to mean,
Then we have a real fact.
And in the truth of that fact we are set free from the fear.
The fact of any problem,
The fearful feeling that we have about it,
Seem to be one thing when in truth they are separate issues appearing as one.
They only merge in a single thought telling us that one can't exist without the other.
In other words,
The fear that I have right now is because of what I see coming.
But the fact is what I see coming is imagined and that's the point of this.
The more we understand the fact and put it in front of the fear,
The more fearless we will naturally be and the brighter our destiny will become because it won't have a self in it,
A fearful self,
Busy imagining problems.
Instead we'll be enjoying the profitability of being a human being who has succeeded in liberating himself or herself from fear.
I hope to see you tomorrow when we pick up the 30th key which is called Catch Yourself in the Act.
Bye.
