Thought of the Day

Article 2: ACT IN SPITE OF FEAR
================================================================
I have heard it said that the first ingredient of success -
the earliest spark in the dreaming youth - is this: dream a
great dream.

Hello all,
I hope everything is fine with you. This week, I have very interesting articles for you.
The first one is on tax advantages of a home-based business. If you're not aware of those, you might throw away thousands of dollars that could otherwise be use to improve your lifestyle and enjoy life. Make sure your prospects and associates know about those advantages as well. Many people who never had any business experience don't know about them, and they are for sure excellent reasons to start or stay committed to a home-based business.
The second article is more inspirational, and has been written by a person I greatly respect: Harv Eker. It is about fear. What a poison! I hope you'll enjoy Harv's article and that it will help you heal your fear so you can gain better success in all areas of your life.
Best regards,
Stephan Bourget

Since tax reduction strategies are not taught in school, many people that start a part-time home-based business quit before they acquire the knowledge they need without realizing that they are getting substantial tax breaks.
According to Sandy Botkin, CPA, attorney and former trainer of IRS attorneys nationwide, if everyone in the U.S. who is employed full-time started a part-time business, each employee could easily reduce his or her taxes from $2,000 to $10,000+ each year.
In most cases it can actually cost you more to NOT be in a business, than to be in a business and not make a profit your first year. For instance, if you live in the U.S. and you're a full-time employee, the government can help fund the growth of your new business by allowing you to legally increase your exemptions on your W-4 form. This can mean getting an extra $150-$300+ per month on your paycheck to grow your business starting almost immediately. (To take advantage of these little-known tax strategies or for more information, please consult with a qualified home business tax professional.)
If not done yet, I encourage all of you to start a home-based business part-time. Next year, you could get $5,000+ in tax deductions just for doing so, plus your business income.
If you don't know what industry to choose, I suggest the wellness industry, the next trillion industry according to the renowned economist Paul Zane Pilzer. Team One Worldwide offers excellent products backed by solid research, and a business opportunity which is free to start at http://www.mynewsuccess.com Mastery TV at http://shmyl.com/bpt is excellent as well, and you can take a Free Tour to better know what it is up to. This latter affiliate program is perfect as a complementary tool which will give you additional training to succeed in the former.
It's time to become tax wise, my friend. How much will you save this year?
Best regards,

The
formula for manifestation in our physical universe is known to be "thoughts
lead to feelings, which lead to actions, which lead to results." Most
people have plenty of thoughts and feelings, but the breakdown for many seems to
be ability to take "action". The culprit, of course, is fear. That is
why to succeed in life you
must
cultivate the trait of courage.
Courage is "taking action is spite of fear". In fact, you can only experience courage in face of fear. Fear is our greatest obstacle to living happy, peaceful and powerful lives. The true definition of fear is "anticipation of pain." Since anticipation is based in the future and the future only exists in our imagination, fear does not exist in reality. It only lives in our head.
Therefore, it is our own protective mind that prevents us from taking the actions necessary to attain our dreams. As the cartoon character Pogo so appropriately states, "We have met the enemy and he is us".

The protective mind is like an over worried mother. It is constantly creating "doom and gloom" scenarios trying to scare the heck out of us, in the hopes that we won't try anything new. Its favorite words are "what if." "What if this happens? What if that happens?" Even though none of these things have actually happened, and chances are none of these things will ever happen, this "soap opera" script continues to blare loudly in our head.
Unfortunately we tend to take this mind frick as gospel and our
wonderful ideas of growth and opportunity, become full of uncertainty and doubt.
Recognize that our protective mind is not necessarily to be believed; that its
agenda has nothing to do with making us happy or successful, but only to keep us
in a place that is safe, secure and familiar. 
Unfortunately many people wait for their fear to subside before taking action. Big mistake! It is not necessary to get rid of fear in order to act. It’s not necessary to “kill” the cobra! The more effective strategy is to learn to "tame" the cobra of fear by acknowledging the feelings and then taking action anyway. Fear itself holds no real power over you. You and you alone give fear its power. If you allow fear to stop you, it will. If you recognize it as the protective part of you, doing it's job (far to well), you can simply say to your mind, "thank you for sharing" and then proceed into action.
Realize that successful people have fear. Successful people have doubts and successful people worry. The only difference between those who succeed and those who don't is that successful people act in spite of their fear, doubt, and worry. So can you!
The darkness of fear begins to disappear in the light of action. Because your protective mind (where fear resides) lives only in past or future, fear cannot exist in the present moment. Actions, however, only exist in the present moment, meaning that in the midst of focused action, fear dissipates.
The voice of fear is not you. It is only a conditioned
"tape" from the past projecting into the future. Once you can
recognize that you are the one playing the tape and not the tape itself, you are
free! 
Ask yourself, "What would I do, if I absolutely knew I could not fail?" The answer will give you a good indication of what you would do and who you would become if you lived based in heart and spirit vs. fear!
EXERCISE
Think of your dreams, your relationships, your career, your time, your
recreational activities, and your environment (where you live and with whom you
associate). Where in your life are you letting fear, doubt or worry stop you
from taking the necessary actions for happiness and success? What would you do
if you could not fail? From this day forth, begin to act as if you could not
fail and watch as miracles unfold!
Declaration:
I act in spite of fear, doubt and worry!
I take action towards my happiness and success!
