		<description>From all of the personal work I have done it has boiled down to implementing the THANKs principles (Trustworthiness, Honesty, Authenticity, Neutrality, Kindness, and Surrender) on a daily basis. Fear is so cunning and it is always looking for a door to come in and feed on. It is like a parasite that just wants to eat a good meal. I have found that what all of us as humans really are looking for is a way to feel connected. Fear so often wants to make us terminally unique and create many excuses as to why we can legitimize our feelings of superiority or inferiority and stay separated. As well, it tells us we may lose something we feel we need to hold onto or not get something we believe we have to have or are entitled to. One thing is for sure, the more I live in my fear, the more fear I keep producing. It will always create distorted projections about the future. The THANKs princples truly are the antidote to overcoming fear based thought patterns. And, it is not easy. I have had to work with mentors, sponsors, spiritual teachers and people much wiser then myself over the course of many years in order to make some in roads to effectively purge out the fear that dwells within. Little by little I find my self in less fear and connected to my AUTHENTICITY. At this core place dwells compassion, deep empathy, tolerance of others, peace of mind and love in my heart. FDR said in his inaugural address that there is nothing to fear but fear itself. What I have come to learn in my own personal experience is that \&quot;There is nothing to fear\&quot;.  A great podcast to listen to that will blow you away is; http://www.transworldynamics.com/content/blogcategory/9/26/</description>

		<description>Thank you for this post. Thank you for all the opportunities that come my way. Thank you too for all the challenges that come my way. This reminds me of a Wednesday Wisdom post I have on my personal blog. In it, I wrote that we shouldn&#039;t be angry or frustrated over past events. Why? Because in the end, we realize that all these events that transpired in the past have led up to where we are now.</description>
