Suppose people and obstacles really are basically the same no matter
where they find themselves geographically. What could a person do to develop a “No Fear” response
to the challenges of life?
Victoria Lee suggests above
all they need to believe in themselves by realizing that they have a purpose for being on this earth – a reason for living;
a part to play in the overall plan of life.
They need to believe that they don’t exist just to take up space
but to fill a specific position –
a place of employment so to speak. Therefore in realizing their worth - their undeniable
place in creation - they can expect good things to come their way. When negative things
do happen, they realize they are only temporary setbacks - not the end to
their dreams.
I wish I could
take the hand of every small child
and young adult. I would personally show them a quick glance into
their future so they could see how incredibly
awesome they are. I would help them believe that the world is crying out for their
unique gifts and talents that only they can
provide.
A few years back, Victoria Lee spoke to a group of young teenagers
in a program designated for
troubled kids. As she looked over
the group, she noticed a young man
that had the typical “nerd” image screaming out of him.
It was
almost as if she could read his thoughts
of insecurity - misfit, unwanted, and undesirable.
That day in
class, she used him as an example of what it
means to believe a lie about
oneself instead of the truth. She wanted to help them understand how valuable each of them is to the world.
As she left that day, she knew the students
understood themselves somewhat better. The young man presented her with a button that read, “You’re too blessed to be stressed.” He carried
that button with him
at all times to encourage himself. Somehow after the meeting, Victoria felt the student had a little
less need for that button.
