Introduction
As crazy as this may sound, many people are afraid to be fearless. Fear is one of the most misunderstood, yet most powerful entities in the world, and it is actually this misunderstanding, that gives fear its power. Fear is very real and is something everyone faces daily from an early age, and generally speaking, the relationship most people have with fear worsens over time. In fact, we are born with the fear

of falling and loud noises. This is actually a protection mechanism of the human body and is meant to keep us safe. However, this protection system of fear quickly gets out of whack if unchecked and we find ourselves developing all kinds of fears that do not serve us.

Fear has many different forms and can have many faces, personalities, and types. It will rear its ugly head when you least expect it and will cause a great deal of harm in your life if you do not fully understand what it is, how it develops, why it develops, and most importantly, how to contain it on a daily basis. Those who claim to have eliminated it from their lives really have not; they have only temporarily contained it on some level. Fear is really that powerful. But we have the formula to battle fear and live like a Superhero!

Only then will you begin to contain fear because achievement creates hope, which is the enemy of fear. As part of the Superhero Success series of books and ebooks, this ebook will provide you a better understanding of

fear and how to conquer it in every aspect of your life. We use the term conquer to mean having the least amount of fears that dont serve you effect you on your daily life and decision making. We are born knowing fear and it will be an ever-present force in our life, however it can be utilized as it was meant to be in its original form; to protect us from harm and not to hold us back from realizing our dreams. No longer do you have to be a slave to fear and its many comrades. No longer do you have live with

stress, worry, anxiety and depression because once you understand fear, you can contain it.

If the thought of being fearless in every aspect of your life sounds enticing to you, and youre ready to start having, doing, and being everything you

dream of without fear holding you back, then get ready to strap on your cape because youre about to learn the secrets to achieving Superhero Success in conquering fear once and for all!

Chapter 1
Defining And Understanding Your Fears
Though we often think about fear in a negative context, the truth of the matter is that fear can be a very positive thing. It tells us when we are in physical danger, it helps us figure out what things make us uncomfortable and it reminds us of hurts we have experienced in the past.

However, in many cases, fear can also be a cage that prevents us from doing what we want and releasing the Superhero inside. When you look around and realize that your life is hemmed in by fear, you need to overcome it. One of the first steps that you can take in overcoming your fears is to define them. Clearly defining your fears can help you get a grasp on what fears are on automatic pilot in your head.

Identify Your Fears

In some cases, identifying your fears is easy. You may be afraid of heights or of flying or something else that is easy to perceive. This is especially tricky for budding Superheroes wanting to get off the ground. However, when fear sneaks up on you and leaves you with a panic reaction that you dont understand, it can be confusing. Start really investigating the times that you are afraid. What do they have in common? Is

there a situation, an emotion or even a person that triggers it? Is it fear of failing, fear of loss or fear of confrontation? Before you can start defining your fear for yourself, you need to identify it. For some people, this is very difficult, especially if the fear is rooted very deeply. There can be many layers to a fear and union reflection you can see that several different fearful reactions actually steam from one main fear.

Write It Down
If you are having trouble defining your fears, start writing. Writing is a fantastic tool because it allows you to organize your thoughts and to learn more about what you need or what your triggers may be. Start writing about your fearful thoughts and how they affect you, both mentally and physically. Write about the last experience you felt you never want to face again. Chances are you will have fear surface when the same circumstances come up again.

Fear is something that is very hard to sort out in your head. After all, fear can make you hyper alert, but then it can also confuse you, especially if you dont know where it is coming from. Set a timer for five minutes and just free-write until you hear the beep. This is something that can help you put the fears that are holding you back on paper before you have time for your defense mechanisms to kick in. Fear does not like to be exposed, it likes to lurk in dark places like a true villain.

Talk With Someone Else

If you have other Superheroes around you that you trust, youll find that there are a number of reasons to get them involved in your search for your fears. In many cases, the people closest to us know us better than we know ourselves, and as a result, they can help pose ideas regarding what we are afraid of. Ask them if they have ever known you to be affected by fear, and ask them what they think you were afraid of. They

might be able to offer insight that surprises you. Outside people can offer a fresh perspective on what maybe the cause of our fears.

Understand That Fears Affect People Differently

The interesting thing about fear is that although it is a universal experience, it is not caused by the same thing from person to person. For example, if two people are looking at a snake, one might get very nervous and upset, while the other person has no fear at all! This goes further than just simple phobias, however. Two people have experienced the same thing, and though one

person has a strong negative reaction, the other person moves on as they were before. Our minds are complex machines that process millions of bits of information, including fears. Stop comparing your fears to others, and learn what a particular fear means to you. A fear can be as personal as a fingerprint.

Find Out Why You Are Afraid

People can be afraid of the same thing but in two very different ways. For example, consider two people who are afraid of getting on an airplane. One person might be afraid that the plane will crash, while another person might be afraid of being hijacked or kidnapped. One persons fear, therefore, is based on the anxiety of dying, and the other person fears a loss of control. A loss of control fear is a prominent one for entrepreneurs on many levels,

as well as one battled by Superheroes. As you can see from this example, it is not useful to say that both people are afraid of flying, though this is how the fear manifests. Take a moment to think about why you have the fear that you do and what the impulse behind it might be. If you are invested in taking control of your fears, and achieving Superhero Success then take a moment to think about how you can define them. You cannot conquer your fears if

you dont know what they are!

Chapter 2
Internal And External Fears And How They Develop
Almost everyone in todays world understands the necessity of balancing their personal life with their business life. This balance if oftentimes fearful and chaotic. Frequently, people think the only way a person can accomplish all of their goals is to stay constantly busy. This is not

Superhero thinking or living. When fears hold a person back from succeeding in all of their aspirations they lack balance. This fear-based imbalance restricts a person from achieving the greatness that they are capable of and most oftentimes people dont realize how this occurs. Fears can come in many forms and at times can be detrimental to a persons wellbeing. The two types of fears that all other fears fall under are internal and external. These fears present

themselves in very different ways and can have very different effects on a persons state of mind. Understanding both of these fears and the reasons behind them is the only way to overcome them. External fears are the most easily understandable and recognizable. These fears are related to things that exist outside of a person and bring with them a natural feeling of dread and anxiety. Just because it is natural to have these feelings, however, doesnt

mean it is necessary or even common to experience them. The fear of spiders and snakes are two of the most common external fears a person could have. External fears are very easy to recognize due to the fact that they are triggered by a clearly identifiable outside source. This trigger is always related to the fear itself. Referring back to the fear of spiders, the sighting of a spider or a soft creeping feeling going across a persons arm can cause the feeling of anxiety and dread

to appear. These fears usually only occur when a person encounters or believes they are encountering the object of their fear. External fears can affect a person in more than just their personal life. A business owner may refuse to expand their business if it requires that they work on the seventieth floor of a high-rise building when they are fearful of heights. A person may refuse to attend an important international business meeting if it is occurring in a part of the world that they fear is unsafe.

Regardless of what a persons specific external fears are, they will always negatively affect that person in some area of their life holding them apart from experiencing their Superhero inside. As stated earlier, it is often easy to identify the source of an external fear. These fears are often caused by something that a person has seen or experienced at some point in their life. Falling from a tree house as a child could easily cause a fear of heights, and even seeing excessive crime in a certain area

of town can cause a person to experience fear when under similar circumstances. Regardless of the external fear, it usually exists solely as a reminder of something bad that has already happened. Internal fears are much harder to define and explain than external fears. An internal fear is one that exists solely within a persons own mind. They too are often triggered by something in the external world, but the external world is not their basis for existence. Since this type of fear doesnt necessarily stem from a

specific event in a persons life, it can be difficult to identify the main cause for the fear. Internal fears can manifest as a fear of rejection, failure, success and several other inner issues. A person could fear asking for money to start a business because they think that they may be turned down, but another person may fear the same thing based solely on the fact that they fear the responsibility and what they have to take on if they succeed. This same fear of asking for a

business loan could stem from the fear that a person will fail once they are given the opportunity. Regardless of the reason a person is hesitant to ask for the capital, it always stems from an internal fear. Internal fears can be caused by a number of factors that are usually related to emotion. A person may develop an irrational fear of rejection after being left by a partner. Another person may develop a fear of failure after spending a lifetime with an overbearing father who demanded perfection in every

aspect of his life. These fears can prevent a person from taking the risks necessary to realize their dreams of success and let the Superhero with them soar. Often internal fears are very difficult to overcome. Unfortunately for anyone who has a fear, sometimes the only way to overcome it is to face it headon. This may sound very near impossible to many, but it only takes a moment of looking past this fear for a person to accomplish what they want. Focusing on the end results and not the fear can be the beginning

of achieving a Superhero lifestyle.

Chapter 3 The Most Common Fears And Why They Are Hard To Deal With
In large part, fear of certain objects or situations can be learned from others. Children can learn to fear spiders and snakes

because they witness their parents fear of such creatures. On the other hand, children of entrepreneurial parents are more likely not to be afraid to start their own businesses. Many people learn their fears from those around them or they allow themselves to become fearful of something simply because they feel a certain situation may be potentially harmful or dangerous. Across the board people fear many of the same things, and dealing with those fears are a difficult daily challenge in the pursuit of

allowing their inner Superhero to emerge.

Fear of Creatures
Many people fear creatures such as bugs, snakes, mice, and spiders. This fear is a good one to have at times. It is adapted from the need to survive. People know that some snakes are poisonous and therefore they tend to fear all snakes because they want to survive. The same goes for other creepy crawly critters such as spiders and mice. People tend to want to keep as much distance between themselves and these creatures

as they possibly can because they dont want to get up close and personal with them to see if they are poisonous or not. Its again a survival method. This fear is difficult to deal with because bugs and creatures are located everywhere. They can get into a persons home and they are always found outside. Bugs can easily invest and destroy property and many carry disease, which is why most people fear them in the first place. Dealing with a fear of creatures

is difficult because it is hard to overcome a fear of things that people perceive as dangerous or hurtful. As a result, most people will continue to be afraid of creatures their entire lives and will react and base decisions on whether there is potential to encounter them.

Fear of Heights
Many people are afraid of heights and they dont like balconies, cant stand going into an elevator and up to a high floor, and cannot go to the edge of the Empire State Building and look down. This is a perfectly normal fear that stems from another survival trait. The fear high places is based solely on the potential to fall. A fear of heights is difficult to deal with for two reasons. The first is that heights are easy to

avoid. Many people are happy to take a longer route to work to avoid driving over a high bridge or to live in places where there are no mountains for them to have to travel. The second reason is that a fear of heights has no substance. When a person is faced with the concept of going outside on a balcony or ledge they often feel a sense of panic and they freeze making it impossible for them to put themselves in this situation. Unless a person is dedicated to taking steps to encounter higher and higher places, this fear will

be impossible to overcome.

Fear of Storms
This is a common fear that many people have. This is possibly due to the fact we are born with the fear of loud noises. Also storms are unpredictable and there is nothing people can do to control them. Watching the news and seeing the damage from hurricanes, tornadoes, lightning, and rain generates a lot of different fears in people. The reason this fear is hard to deal with is that storms are beyond a persons control and

threatens survival on many levels. Additionally, the media is very dramatic warning people of impending storms and the dangers that go along with it. This perpetuates a fear of an event that may not have even occurred to the person.

Small Spaces
Many people are terrified of small, enclosed spaces because they feel claustrophobic and cannot escape. This can happen on airplanes and can severely restrict a persons business and personal life. For many people, the fear of being trapped or caged in a small space feels like the equivalent of death. The physical reaction to this situation can actually induce a heart attack and cause a persons death. Overcoming a fear of small

spaces can be one of the most difficult to overcome because it is hard to get people to face the fear. People often experience panic attacks that make the phobia even more pronounced, which makes it even more difficult to overcome. Public Speaking Many entrepreneurs face one of the top fears of all people, public speaking. This is due to the fact that the idea of being the center of attention is terrifying to them. They are worried that they will be judged, ridiculed, found

unattractive, or not good enough. The root of this problem is that people fear that they will embarrass themselves in front of peers or clients, which they see as the death of their credibility and business. This is difficult to deal with because it requires people to actually start speaking in public. Many face panic attacks, feel sick, get nauseous, or freeze, which makes the moment even more difficult. As with other fears, if the person is able to overcome their initial public speaking engagement, however,

most find it easier and easier to engage in public speaking from that point on. Whatever the fear, creatures or speaking it is clear that fears are powerful, effect life and business decisions and it can seem to be a daunting task to overcome them on ones own. Avoidance is usually the route people take when faced with fear. However, you have to ask yourself where you would rather place your effort, avoiding a fear or overcoming it. The Superhero response is always to overcome!

Chapter 4
Why Fears Develop In The First Place And How To Defeat Fear As An Entrepreneur
Fear of failure, lack of experience, and timing can discourage entrepreneurs from embarking on a potentially successful business endeavor. While it is important to be smart

about business goals and professional planning, organizations rarely grow to extensive lengths without a leap of Superhero faith and adequate preparation for professional opportunities. Ironically enough, while some fear is a good thing for keeping businesses safe and setting fluid limits, too much fear can be debilitating and may create intense barriers that inhibit professional growth.

How is Fear Generated in the Body?

The area of the brain that is responsible for the generation of fear is the amygdala, which responds to neurotransmitters that fire when fear is generated. In fact, the amygdala is responsible for ones perception/response to frightening events. Initially a distress reaction occurs, which evolves from unpatterned stimuli. Humans then inherit coping mechanisms based

on the objects that deject this fear, and a more mature way of dealing with fear reactions.

Biochemical Reaction of Fear

Although fear is an emotional state, the human body compensates for this mentality by inducing a variety of physical responses, which include sweating, adrenaline spikes, and increases in heart rate. It is as this point when the fight or flight response kicks in, and individuals must choose how to respond to their fear. This reaction is automatic, evolutionary, and crucial for survival.

Emotional Response
Emotional responses to fear are highly personalized. Some individuals (adrenaline junkies) have a positive response to fear, while others have a negative response to fear and avoid fearinducing events at all costs. Though the physical reaction is the same for all humans, different stimuli can initiate very personal fear responses for each human.

Societal Beliefs About Fear

Recent studies have discerned that it is no longer tenable to substantiate that fear erupts from painful experiences. Though fear is often sought out in safe environments, individuals often go out of their way to avoid it in unhealthy settings. As a result, this feeling is necessary for productivity and goal initiation.

Types of Reactions and Solutions

Researchers have distinguished two inconsequential types of fear: fluid and fixed. While fluid fear may initiate and cease singularly or on a recurring basis, fixed fear is constant. Fluid fears are considered acceptable, because individuals can overcome them. Yet, fixed fears can intensify and may require special attention from professionals.

Extreme Situations
In some cases, ones fear of a situation or occurrence can be so severe that it evolves into a phobia. A phobia is a negative fear of something that is so truly intense it can affect an individuals life on a daily basis. Phobias often require help from trained professionals, as individuals are often truly terrified of the object that generates their fear.

Converting Fear into an Acceleration Initiator

Just as fear can affect some individuals in a negative manner, it can propel others forward into goals and can create motivation. Individuals can use fear to succeed in business, at school, or in health and fitness, amongst many other things. The fear of failure is sometimes strong enough to enhance motivation, determination, and courage to complete set tasks. Utilizing fear as a motivator can

propel entrepreneurs into successful business endeavors and encourage business owners to take chances to facilitate business growth. As business professionals gain more confidence in their business, they will soon discover that fear is short-lived. This initial reaction is soon replaced by a commitment to Superhero success and professional empowerment.

Barriers of Business Endeavors

One of the main reasons why individuals avoid entrepreneurship is based on the fear of failure, loss of money, and making mistakes. Yet, refusing to place blame on superficial objects/persons, meeting new partners, and studying previous mistakes can resurrect a business and provide the power one needs to embark on a journey of entrepreneurship.

A World Without Fear

Can you imagine a world where fear was irrelevant? Ironically enough, the world would be a pretty scary place without fear of objects or situations that are unsafe. As a result, fear plays a huge role in keeping humans health and thriving. Making mistakes is ultimately the job of a true Superhero, while avoiding mistakes is the job of a villain.

Chapter 5
How To Diagnose What Fears Are Most Debilitating To Success
Fear is the driving force behind most of the obstacles in our lives. As stated earlier, some fears are easy to recognize fear of flying, or heights, or nervousness in front of a crowd. But others remain hidden deep inside our subconscious minds, creating

blocks that stop us from realizing our potential and manifesting dreams for a better life. In order to accomplish goals and create a vision of Superhero success, its essential to find and eliminate those hidden fears. Some strategies that anyone can try at home include meditating, journaling, collage making and tapping. These activities can aid people in exploring memories and experiences in order to shed light on problems and their origins.

Meditation
Although often met with skepticism, meditation can help identify and cope with hidden fears. Often poorly understood, meditation is simply the practice of clearing clutter from the mind and opening a space that allows us to listen to the still voice of our own intuition. One part of meditation involves observing the thoughts that appear, and recognizing the emotion behind them, especially if its a fearful one.

Meditation can be practiced in many ways. The traditional form thats familiar to most of us involves sitting upright in a comfortable position on the floor or other surface, fingers touching in one of the many mudras (hand positions) of yoga. Breathing deeply, the meditator might envision a mantra or a phrase, or simply observe thoughts and breath. There are also a host of mediation CDs and websites available to help with this practice as well. Other types of meditation involve

activity, such as walking, running or tai chi. However its practiced, though, meditation allows us to practice paying attention to the hidden parts of ourselves and find fears and the emotions associated with them.

Journaling and Other Kinds of Writing

Exploring your life through writing can help to uncover the fears and blocks that throw up barricades to success. Journaling or memoir writing can illuminate areas of the past that created fears, and numerous self-help guides available both online and in print can offer guidance in formulating the kinds of questions that can lead to insights. A relatively new way of using writing to uncover the hidden

parts of the self is personal storytelling and mythmaking, strategies, which involve seeing your life as a narrative that can be changed. Alternatively, telling the story of your life in the form of a fairy tale or myth can often help to create distance and a new perspective that makes it easier to see areas where fears and other kinds of negative emotions arose.

Collages and Mind Maps

For some, a visual representation of an aspect of life that needs attention can be helpful. Collages, vision boards and mind maps are often used in coaching and therapy to help clients visualize problems and solutions and to clarify goals. The mind map is another visual technique that involves creating a page full of connected ideas that arise from a single seed thought in a circle in the middle of the page. Often used with a prompt or a

statement of intention to learn what blockages are stopping progress, these visual explorations of the inner mind access the abilities of the socalled right brain, which operates on levels other than language.

Tapping
Tapping is an increasingly popular way to address hidden fears. This technique, used in therapy and in daily life, involves steady tapping on a set group of pressure points on the body while saying a series of affirmations. Points such as the karate chop point on the side of the hand, the side of the eye and other key places on the head and body are said to help release the anger and other negative emotions that threaten to derail success.

Tapping, taught by a variety of coaches and online for selfstudy, is based on the idea that the body carries fears and the memory of negative experiences within its muscles, joints and tissues. Tapping is believed to release these emotions and memories, so practitioners target a selected series of acupressure points while expressing selfacceptance and understanding. Releasing the hidden fears that create obstacles can be a challenging but necessary task of self-development. Simple practices that anyone can do at

home can help people to explore their emotions and memories in a positive, accepting way. These and similar practices can create conditions for uncovering hidden fears and eliminating their power to block goals and dreams letting the Superhero within you breakthrough.

Chapter 6
Defining A Unique Treatment Plan To Thwart External And Internal Fears
Now that we have a good understanding of fear and ways to address it, lets look at building a treatment plan specific to your needs. Because without a plan, your Superhero will never see the light of day. The first place anyone needs to begin is with

their thinking.

Confronting Fears and Anxiety

Therapists and personal coaches use many methods to help clients overcome their fears and anxiety. Fears and anxiety may not be based on real information. Instead, they can be based on faulty or illogical thinking. One way to confront your fears or anxiety is to think about what is driving the fear and provoke yourself into feeling those feelings. No matter how intense those feelings become, you begin

to realize that these feelings alone can not harm you and you are uncomfortable but safe and you will survive this experience, as you always have in the past. As a result, you have less anxiety as you approach whatever has been causing your fears. Sometimes the charge behind many fears is purely emotional and once you realize that the feeling is just that, you can overcome many fears that have held you back in the past. You emotions should be used as a guide and when they dont serve you, they need to be quickly

subdued and the situation needs to be met with a clear assessment of the situation.

Change Your Thought Process

Another tool in analyzing your fears is to keep a log of your thoughts and associated feelings throughout especially challenging times. Anytime a seemingly new stress appears its time to see if its one of your favorites making a new entrance. This method of addressing fears is commonly used by many therapists and is a kind of detective approach to see if a common fear for you is still unaddressed. The more you. An tie fears together, the better

understanding you will have and the more freedom you will experience. When you have a feeling of fear or anxiety, write down what you were thinking and what was happening when the feeling started. After the experience passes, examine whether your reaction was reasonable or logical. If you keep a log of these events, you may discover a distinctive pattern over time and this gives you a lot of power. Negative thoughts often create negative feelings, such as fear

and anxiety. You may be surprised to find that you worry, think about catastrophes or predict failure unconsciously and usually there is a snowball effect as you pile one negative thought onto another. You need to catch yourself and replace these negative thoughts one positive one and you can quickly change the outcome. Even if that positive thought has nothing to do with the negative ones you were thinking. Simply turn your focus to something...anything positive and you will have saves yourself a lot of fearful emotions.

Then you can realize that your feelings of fear do not make sense, and you can begin to replace faulty thought patterns with more effective ones. Instead of thinking, I will faint if I give a speech, replace that thought with, I know this topic and will give a speech that is five minutes long successfully.

Analyze the Cost of Fear

Many people find that fear prevents them from accomplishing many of their goals. For business people, the cost can be tremendous. Fear can stop you from trying out new business strategies, launching new products or expanding into new markets. You can use a cost benefit analysis to determine what fear is costing you. Many people do this with their business risks, how about doing it with your life as a

whole. Make a list of the advantages of confronting your fears and changing your behavior. Make a list of the cost mentally and physically of letting your fear stop you from reaching your goals and becoming a Superhero in life and business. Place this where you can see it daily. When you compare the lists, you will discover that it is worth it to confront your fears and do anything to overcome them. Coping with your fear and taking away its power may be initially challenging, but you will likely be

delighted with your Superhero begins to emerge.

Use Stress Management Techniques

Fear often provokes feelings of major anxiety as your adrenaline spikes, your breathing increases and your heart rate rises. Using stress management techniques can help you calm your feelings and gain control on the road to conquering fear. Try closing your eyes briefly and breathing slowly through your nose. Think of images that are relaxing, such as a beach, a forest or a special place you

remember fondly. Tell yourself you are in control and are always safe. Picture yourself as a full fledged Superhero able to take on anything in your path. Other stress management techniques also work well for confronting fear. Try distracting yourself with an activity such as a crossword puzzle when flying or listening to music and singing to yourself before a speech. Exercise can also be an excellent way to work off excess energy that fear provokes. We have heard of a famous salesman who jumps on and off of a chair in his

office before going into the boardroom to pitch a client.

Positive Thinking
You can use positive thoughts and images in a number of ways to help you overcome your fears. Repeatedly thinking positive thoughts and seeing positive affirming images retrains your mind into letting go of your fears. Practice thinking, seeing and hearing positivity so that those concepts become the norm, instead of the fearful ones. Write down specific affirming statements about your fears and say them out loud to yourself

every day. Examples include, I am an effective speaker, I enjoy speaking to potential clients, I try something new every day. The most effective affirmations contain positive statements about yourself and are in the present-tense. I AM statements are especially powerful in the Superhero world. You can also create a positive scene of yourself, in your mind, of you without your fear. For example, you can imagine yourself getting on an airplane, completely relaxed and smiling if you have a phobia about flying.

You might imagine a scene in which you are confidently giving a speech, fully relaxed, to a receptive and appreciative audience. You can picture yourself in fights and a cape surrounded by adoring fans! Fear evokes normal emotions that everyone experiences. By identifying what provokes these feelings and addressing them, you can replace your anxiety with calm self-confidence and become the Superhero you were born to be.

Chapter 7
How To Create Daily Action Steps And Implement Them To Beat Fear
Karl Augustus Menninger, one of Americas early psychiatrists, once said Fears are educated into us, and can, if we wish, be educated out. This is a powerful quote that instills hope within people who are facing debilitating fears in their everyday life. Most

of you by now understand that overcoming your fears is a possibility, but the question still exists as to what is the best way for your specific fears. Nothing in the world has ever been obtained by a person who only spoke words when it came to what they wanted out of life. This is true of overcoming fear as well. If a person is really interested in overcoming any fears in their life that are overwhelming them, then they must actually set out a specific plan of action and go follow it.

One of the best ways a person can begin overcoming their most intense fears is to create daily action steps addressing the top three most influential fears so that they can be dealt with quickly. There are several steps to creating an effective daily action plan and implementing it. The first step to creating a plan to overcome a fear day by day is to be specific about the intended goal. Some people may want to completely overcome what may seem to be an irrational fear, while others may just want to be able to face it without

experiencing their common reactions. Regardless of the hoped for end result, a person that knows daily progress toward a goal is hugely effective, is far more prepared than the person who doesnt. Another important part of daily action steps is to create measurable milestones. These must be very specific. A few example milestones could be talking about the fear, being around the fear or even flat out facing the fear. These milestones can be put into

a list to help a person keep track of their progress. Being able to see progress will actually give a person the drive to continue and hope, which is the most effective tool in battling fear. Every little milestone that a person reaches adds to the chances that the fear will eventually be overcome. Knowing how to create daily action steps does not in itself help a person overcome a fear; it simply gives them guidelines to creating the necessary steps. The steps and milestones can be used for any specific purpose whether it is personal, financial or

any other fear in a persons life. The important thing is to create a workable plan for your specific fears and implement it. An important point to recognize in dealing with fear is the concept of not being obsessed with uncertainty while realizing that it does exist. Too many times people are stricken by the fear of the unknown, whether it is taking on a new plan or deciding to get professional help with fear. They do this because they are haunted by the simple illusion of security. Helen Keller once said Security

is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature life is either a daring adventure or nothing. These words carry the burden of reality upon them. Few things in life are certain, and a person who is afraid of something simply because they think life has certainty, is doing themselves a serious injustice. Be assured the best way to overcome a fear is to face it with an action plan head-on. The movie Point Break said it best with the quote Fear causes hesitation, and hesitation will cause your worst fears to come

true. Eleanor Roosevelt pointed out that a person gains courage, strength and confidence with every fear that they face. Many times as your Superhero emerges you will realize that there really wasnt much to be afraid of in the first place. Once a fear is faced, it is put into perspective, and once it is seen in a new light, it often doesnt live up to the heightened emotion you gave it in the first place. The most important thing is to get started with at least one fear and take on the daily action

steps as soon as possible. Sitting around waiting for the courage to do something will result in getting the same thing you have always gotten. It is imperative in the life of a Superhero that you recognize what needs to be done and set out to accomplish it. Hesitation not only causes our worst fears to become reality, it also makes our fears more powerful. Thinking about handling a fear and not doing it will increase a persons fear by allowing their mind to run amok. It is only when we are able to

control fear that it does not control us.

Conclusion
Are you feeling a little more confident? Maybe even a little fearless? Remember, life is entirely too short to allow yourself to be governed in any way by that does not serve your purpose in life, and often fear does exactly this: it derails us on our path. Many people allow fear to not only have input in their lives, but literally control every thought they think. They die in regret instead of full of pride for a life well lived.

Hopefully you found this little book on conquering fear to be of value to you. And if you do intend to soar with your fellow Superheroes at any point, then the information found in this little book will be INVALUABLE to youespecially if you intend to wear tights and a cape. Being fearless doesnt mean you never experience fear. It simply means you dont let it control your thoughts and therefore your daily life. Embrace the fear when it shows up in your life, then stop and think about the circumstances and what you

were thinking about when it arrived. More often than not, you were subconsciously thinking about a pain that happened in your past, either physical or mental. You have complete control over your mind and what you think about, so if you want to achieve Superhero status in your life and your business, then thats what you need to focus on and think about most. Being a Superhero is not just about being fearless. Its about being balanced in all areas of

your life: physical, spiritual, emotional, financial, personal and business.

About The Author

TW Walker is an entrepreneur with unmatched vision and attributes this to being stuffed in a stocking that was too small when he was born (Christmas Baby), and also being dropped on his head multiple times as a child. He unknowingly began his quest for Superherodom at the early age of three when he was openly struck by a speeding car and not expected to see another day. But he was a Superhero in the

making. Donning a full body cast instead of a cape for the next nine months of rehabilitation and recuperation, he was forced to use his imagination instead of his legs to play. He never lost this ability to use his imagination from that day forward. TW learned the value of carving his own path by renting out his Big Wheel that he could no longer use because of his injuries. An entrepreneur was born. Never losing sight of the child within, he crafted and published his first comic strip about a wacky Superhero in his

early twenties, and purchased his first real business. Today, as the author and co-author of several books, including a best seller with world-renowned motivational, business, and leadership experts Tony Robbins, Wayne Dyer, and Brian Tracy, he owns numerous successful businesses. These include a speaking/coaching business, a marketing and consulting firm to help independent retailers and other local businesses succeed at high levels, a mobile app development and digital publishing company, and several

real estate investments that generate millions in revenue. As a published cartoonist, author, speaker, trainer, and consultant he teaches other entrepreneurs and small business owners how to achieve Superhero Success in life and business by mastering simple principles and not taking life too seriously. TW encourages others to avoid running into the same walls over and over again. He does confess, however, that this is considerably easier if you HAVE been dropped on your head as a child.

As a cartoonist TW entertains. As a motivational speaker and author, however, TW teaches people how to achieve Superhero Success in life and business, and to live a lifestyle of design instead of default. With his humorous approach to some of the most daunting obstacles people face in life, he reminds audiences of all ages that the sleeping super powers lying within each of us to achieve success are ready to be awoken. His philosophy is to live a lifestyle of design, rather than default, and he shows people, particularly

entrepreneurs, how to do this by expanding CAPE-abilitySM to break through fears that debilitate growth. Known to wear a cape and tights at times, with his humorous approach to some of the most daunting obstacles people face in life and in their businesses, he reminds people of all ages that the sleeping super powers lying within to achieve success are ready to be awoken. He also reminds them of just how valuable falling on your face can be. TW lives in a secluded, private lair on an island off the southwest

coast of Florida with his wife Heather, and their real white fluffy dog, Jack.
