BOLD LAW I Fear or Faith...You choose

We've all heard the acronym for the word fear... False Evidence Appearing Real

And really, how often do our fears run out of control because our monkey mind (another BOLD LAW) takes over? How many of our worse fears ever actually manifest and become true Not that many...

And how much worry and loss of sleep and negative energy goes into fretting and worrying about something that may never come true? Too much, I think...

One of my coaches asked me once if I trusted him? I replied, “Of course! You would never lead me down a wrong path that is bad for me and, based on your life experience and coaching record with others, I am comfortable following your lead. I trust your wisdom and experience”

He said, “Good, then let me illustrate it this way. If I tied a 100-foot rope around you and blindfolded you and then walked into a strange building ahead of you that you had never been in before and I was at the other end of the rope... you can't see me because I am always around a corner or two, or up a flight of stairs above you that you can only feel, or three doors or a hallway or two ahead of you... but, you can hear my voice and you can feel a gentle tug on the rope persuading you to keep coming slowly, gradually, but to keep stepping forward, would you trust me?”

Again, I said, "Yes!" and he said GOOD! That is blind faith! When you have faith in others who have gone before you and you trust in them to take you to a better place that you may never reach on your own because FEAR stops you!

That's the difference between Faith and fear... you choose which one you want to trust in... l choose faith, how 'bout you?
