Fear is not real, it is the prison of the mind. It is an anti-success syndrome that has hindered many potentials and great destinies from seeing the light of day since the beginning of the world. A man defeated in the mind is already defeated in reality because the mindset is everything.

The mind empowers every action and the result of every physical action or work carried out by the body is dependent on the condition of the mindset. Remember the Holy Scripture confirms that, “As a man thinketh, so he is”. What you see and think about is true because the real you comes from the energy inside of you.

The question here is, ARE YOU FREE OR IN PRISON?

The mind can either be your manufacturing factory or your prison based on the password (FEAR OR FREEDOM) you craft/assign to access the treasures within.

It is either you operate with the password of freedom where you explore all the goodies and enjoy the beautiful world of the supernatural or you embrace the opposite with the potential of making you a failure for life.

It is a place where you operate as the god you are, to create, build, and become.

It is a place where you are at liberty to create a beautiful world and have anything you desire free of charge and without anybody or the government restricting you.

It is your heaven with you as the god and having angels worshiping you day and night. Yes, that’s the power of your mind but fear can cripple or destroy your destiny if you allow any atom of it to stay and dwell within the walls of your mind.

The Lord hasn’t given us the spirit of fear but of sound mind says the Holy Scriptures… DO YOU HAVE A SOUND MIND TO BIRTH YOUR DESTINY?

 Eliminating the prison of the mind

A step is what it takes to get anything done. While you fight the battle of the mind, take the first step. The first step is the most difficult and this is why it is called BOLD STEP OR STEP OF FAITH.

Take away the thoughts of perfection while you take your baby step. Celebrate and reward yourself for this step, then take the next step.

If you take the first step and remain there, you will not be balanced and you will fall. Support your first step with the second step and the result you get will be massive. Even if the first and second steps turn out to be mistakes or failures, you have made progress because failures and experiences give birth to real success.

No success story without the process – the process involves mistakes, failures, pains, sacrifice, hard work, experience, challenges, and the breakthrough. Every step is a lesson and an opportunity for a new phase for you. Do not be afraid to take giant steps because they are stepping stones to the success you seek. Make every mistake an interesting one and a tool to birth the success you desire fast.

You need to start somewhere with what you have and where you are. You don’t need to touch the world when you start, start with yourself and then with someone else. If you successfully impact someone and consistently repeat the process, you will change the world in a short while.

Your dream is a step away! Fear, failure, and mistakes are part of the journey, when they come, learn, ask questions, and get to know the reason(s) you failed. Face it, confront it, and go again. Fear is not real, do not allow it. You are more than enough to fulfill that dream, go for it.
