Are You A Victim Of FABS? Part 2Written by Sibyl McLendon
When you have a case of FABS, it may be hard to eradicate, but it is far from impossible. Fear, Anger, Blame and Shame may be different emotions, but they can all be gotten rid of in same ways:First and foremost, it is very important to learn to LIVE IN THE MOMENT! The past is over and done with, and can never be changed, no matter how much we wish that it could. I remember watching a TV show called Biography, where they were doing life story of a famous TV star. He made comment that he had spent his life always looking behind him, never at where he was or where he was going. He likened it to driving a car but only looking in rear view mirror. If this is what you are doing, it is time to turn your head around and face sun. This crystalline moment in time is only reality that exists, and it is terrible to waste it looking to past. Do whatever you have to do to release past and its hold on you. Second, you must learn that THE ONLY PERSON THAT YOU CAN CHANGE IS YOURSELF! You can spend your entire lifetime wishing that a person would change, wishing that they would treat you better or be loving and supportive, but it ain’t gonna happen just because you want it to. If you were abused as a child, then you may be spending your life trying to ignore it, shoving it down into some dark recess of your psyche. I guarantee you, however, that it is coming out, every minute of every day in ways that you cannot see. Deal with it! Get help, you are going to need it. But you are absolutely, positively going to have to give up hoping that someone will change, or trying to change them. Working on yourself is only answer

They might think it too 'out there' or too woo-woo. But I trust that you have an open mind. You are studying principles that lead to having more peace, happiness, and health in your life-enlightenment. And I'm trusting you are ready for more success in easiest possible way. I've discovered that really living life and choosing happiness is not a destination to reach, but a journey to be relished. The journey certainly includes achievement of your goals. For me, first step in achieving any goal is to visualize and feel goal already accomplished. I'll say that again. The first step in achieving any goal is to visualize and feel goal is already accomplished. You know about visualization. You might even practice it or try it from time to time. But I find that merely visualizing your goals being accomplished is not enough. Let me explain. I took 4 years of post doctoral work in medical hypnosis. I read countless study after study of how mere addition of just one concept to visualization made success more likely to manifest. In 1920's University of Chicago performed an experiment with three groups. The first group had to show up for an hour every day and practice making baskets with basketball. Each group was measured for their skill level at beginning of study and at end of 30 days. The second group was told to show up at laboratory and to sit down for an hour and continuously rehearse making baskets in their mind. The third group was told not to practice, but to show up in 30 days. Predictably group that actually practiced each day did much better. However, what astonished researchers was fact that second group, those who practiced seeing it and feeling it in their minds were not far behind first group. Both groups improved.
