17 Focused Words to Terminate Fear NOW
Guest Blog Post by John Di Lemme 1/26/12
Let’s talk about words. It’s important to understand that the words that you speak predict your results. If you say that you are depressed, then you will reap those results. If you say that you are a champion, then your results will be life-changing. You automatically take ownership of your words, and things start to occur in your life because of those words – good or bad.
Now, I’m going to give you seventeen focused words that will radically change your results and terminate fear out of your life forever.
Word #1 – Committed. I am committed to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes to be a Why Warrior. However, 97% of people are not committed to anything in life. Committed – notice it’s past tense. A commitment is final decision about what you are willing to do to achieve some type of goal or objective. It’s not something that you just think about and put off for another day. When you make a commitment, it’s finished. There’s no turning back. Once you’ve made the decision to be committed to something, your commitment is represented in your action steps, associations, and schedule. What are you doing every day to honor that commitment? Are the people that you associate with motivating you to stick to your commitment? Does your daily schedule reflect your commitment? If you answered no to any of those questions, then you are simply not truly committed.
Word # 2 – Confidence. I am walking strong with confidence as a faithful Why Warrior champion. When someone walks in confidence, you can feel it when they walk in the room and see it in their overall body posture. Like when I take the stage at an event, I’m confident in my abilities as a speaker that I will change lives through my message. Confidence is fully believing what you already know that you are capable of doing. When you make a decision to implement confidence in every area of your life, your results will explode, and people will take notice of the change. Confidence also gets rid of fear instantly and provides you with the faith that you need to achieve your Why in life.
Word # 3 – Pulverize. This word is a powerful! I pulverize the enemy of fear now with my outwardly spoken words. Outwardly spoken words instantly detonate inward fear. For example, when you speak affirmations like “I am a fired up champion!” Fear runs and faith stands. Faith filled words pulverize fear! You’ve got to make a mental decision to absolutely pulverize the enemy of fear now by speaking empowering words over your life every day. Remember, your words determine your results so take the needed action to predict your own future with your words and pulverize the enemy of fear!
Word # 4 – Fighter. I’m a faith fighter for my Why. When you get serious about achieving your Why in life, you become a fighter. No, not a physical fighter, but you are willing to stand up to the enemy that is trying to stop you. Fear fights every single day to hold you back from your Why so you’ve got to learn to fight back. How? Start controlling what comes out of your mouth and into your eyes and ears. Fear is constantly feeding you through television, radio, billboards, and other forms of media. However, fear really attacks through our friends, family, and coworkers. It’s amazing how one little word of discouragement about your Why will cause you to completely give up. I believe we need to fight for our Why no matter what anything or anyone else says. Become a fighter today and stand up for your Why!
Word # 5 – Extraordinary. I’m an extraordinary champion. The only difference between being extraordinary and ordinary is that little bit of extra. Average people speak ordinary words. Ordinary people get ordinary results. Fear makes us remain ordinary in every area of life – health, decision, words, family, finances, happiness, etc. You are extraordinary! God did not make a mistake with you. You are an extraordinary champion! Remember that and go the extra mile in your life to become truly extraordinary.
Word # 6 – Wiser. I am a stronger, wiser, powerful, decisive, miracle manifesting champion Why Warrior. I often pray for wisdom just like Solomon, the richest man that ever walked the Earth. Now to be that blessed, I’m confident that Solomon didn’t pray to win the lottery, for his ship to come in, to be at the right place at the right time, or any other foolishness. No, he prayed for wisdom! Wisdom creates an understanding that you are highly blessed and certified by your birthright to be a champion. It also helps you to understand that fear has absolutely no place in your life! Become wiser in your everyday life by learning three new things per day and journal about them at the end of the day. This daily habit will take you to the next level and drive fear right out of your life!
Word # 7 – Process. I am loving the success process because I am a champion eagle. Success is a two to five year process. Don’t expect instant gratification! You have to love the process, and remember the process is challenging especially if I’m personally coaching you. I will not accept excuses! During your success process, you will encounter adversity but you will also encounter achievement. You will be face to face challenges, but those same challenges will create a monumental change in your life. Obstacles will be in your path, but you make the decision to overcome them no matter what. Love your success process and look forward to all that you will experience along the way.
Word # 8 – Cinch. Success is a cinch for me because I was born a champion! Cinch is defined as certain to fulfill an expectation. However, Success is only a cinch when you make a decision. When you make a decision to be successful in every area of your life and you implement daily action steps to achieve that success, there’s absolutely no way that you will fail. First, start living in an atmosphere of expectation. Speak greatness into your life everyday – Success is a cinch for me, because I was born a champion! Saying that affirmation every morning will move you from fear to faith. You will start to believe that you can achieve success in your life. Own your words and your God-given right to success. As I’ve told you, the process is not easy but success is a cinch if you believe it and build towards your dream every day.
Word #9 – Organized. I am living in an organized, forward moving, profitable, life- changing construction zone! Your construction zone is where you build your future. It may be your office, your car, or basically anywhere else that you spend most of your day. If your construction is messy, then you are fighting a losing battle! The enemy of distraction and the enemy of clutter will destroy your focus while you are building your future and there’s no possible way that you move forward. If your construction zone is so disorganized that the thought of cleaning it overwhelms you or it would simply take too much time, then start with fifteen minutes per day. For fifteen minutes every day, you will clean and organize your construction zone. You will be amazed how your focus will radically shift when your construction zone is organized. Don’t believe me? Try it and see. What do you have to lose? Nothing! You are sitting in a mess and expecting miracles. Miracles require commitment and if you can’t focus on your miracle because of the mess around you, then it’s time to make a change.
Word #10: Destiny. I have complete control over my destiny! During my research, I found a definition for the word destiny that fired me up – a predetermined, inevitable course of events. Your destined for success my friend! It’s inevitable! The only way thing that will get in the way is YOU! You have complete control over your destiny not your past…not your friends…not fear or anything other enemy that is trying to hold you back. Your destiny came to fruition when you were born a champion. At that very point in time, you were destined for greatness. However, it’s your responsibility to make decisions in your life that will make your successful destiny a reality, which brings me to the next word.
Word # 11 – Decisions. My daily decisions determine my ultimate destiny. Take a real good look at your life and understand that the decisions that you’ve made have landed you at the exact point that you are at right now. Good or bad your decisions will determine your ultimate destiny. One of my greatest quotes is Decision Plus Action Equals Results. With every decision that you make, there is a corresponding action. That’s equation leads to your current results in life. Will your current results drive you towards your successful destiny? If not, there’s still time to make a commitment to change your daily decisions, which will in turn change your results. It’s never too late! Make the commitment NOW to make better decisions about your destiny.
Word # 12 – Release. Today, I am making a decision to release fear out of my life! When you make the decision to release fear, indecision and procrastination out of your life, you will experience earth shattering results. Say it out loud – FEAR GET OUT OF MY LIFE! Scream it at the top of your lungs and affirm it every day to release the enemy of fear of your life forever. If your past is holding you back, then reach down and take off the shackles that are holding you back to your past. Do it! Take those shackles off your ankles right now and release your negative past that is holding you back from success. If you think it’s silly to shout out affirmations or physically do something outside of your comfort zone to release something in your life that is holding you back, then you don’t want it bad enough! That’s right. I said it. You don’t want to be free bad enough if you can release yourself from the enemy of fear, doubt, procrastination or even your past. Who cares what anyone else thinks? It’s your life. Now, stand up and release whatever is holding you back in your life!
Word # 13 – Truth. I am receiving only the truth about myself! Everyone projected in the 2010 Super Bowl that the Colts would win, but they didn’t know what was going on behind the scenes in New Orleans – Drew Brees, his teaching, the coach, the atmosphere, and the mindset. The bottom-line is that the experts were wrong! They were wrong, because they didn’t know what was going on behind the scenes. Drew Brees could have listened to them and accepted what they were saying as the truth, but he didn’t. Why? Because he knew the real truth about himself, his coach and his team.
People try to tell us their side of the truth all the time through their opinions, but it’s important to focus on the truth that you know about yourself and not what someone else thinks. Remember, the center of the word truth is “U.” You must believe in yourself and associate with other champions that know the real truth about you. Just like with Drew Brees, the truth will always be revealed no matter what the so-called experts say.
Words # 14 and 15 – Consistently Building. I am consistently building my belief structure with my Why rollover! Every morning when you roll out of bed, you roll right into the present. The past is gone. The present is today. Get up and open that present with great expectation. How? Instead of reaching for the remote control, read your Why Card for the first seven minutes of your day. It’s called the Why rollover. Saying your Why out loud right when you get out of bed will predict the rest of your day. But you can’t just do it one day. You have to do it consistently every single day to build your belief in yourself and your ability to achieve your Why in life. Make it a daily habit just like you brush your teeth in the morning. Your Why rollover should be part of your morning ritual. You wouldn’t walk out of your house without brushing your teeth or taking a shower so why would you face the world without reading your Why Card? Consistently building your belief in yourself by reading your Why every morning will radically change your daily results.
Word # 16 – Guarantee. My habits guarantee my success! My wife is an attorney so using the word guarantee in my teachings drives her crazy. However, I absolutely guarantee that your habits will predict your level of success in life! How? Because I have seen in thousands of times in my life and the lives of my students. If your habits consist of hanging out with naysayers, drinking at the local bar every night and watching garbage television, then how can you expect to achieve your goals in life? 97% of people are dead or dead broke by the age of 65. Why? Their habits took complete control of their lives. What about the other 3%? Now, those are the champions that realized that their daily habits will determine if they achieve their goals and dreams. They made the decision to commit to positive daily habits like reading their Why Card, listening to motivational teachings, exercising to keep physically fit, eating right to stay healthy, associating with people that empowering them, etc. They basically said Enough is Enough with the Bad Habits! Haven’t you had enough! Isn’t it time to make a change? I’ll say it again. Your habits will guarantee your level of success – good or bad. It’s completely your choice.
Word # 17 – Finish. I will finish my success journey! Make a decision today to commit to the two to five year success journey and finish your success journey. 97% of people quit before they finish! Sadly, I’ve personally witnessed hundreds of people quit on their success journey. They refused to tough it out and finish what they started. When it got hard, they quit! If they would have just hung on that last mile, they would have realized that true prosperity was right around the next corner. That’s not you! You have committed to finish what you’ve started and achieve your Why in life. Keep focused no matter what adversity you face. Success is your destiny and you will cross the finish line!
