Overcome Anxiety and Panic Attacks

Is your mental health preventing you from achieving your dreams and aspirations?

I used to suffer from severe anxiety and panic attacks, and they did stop me from doing a whole lot of things. All I could think about was my fear! It was so bad that I became Agoraphobic and was too scared to leave my house. I couldn’t even walk to my letter box without having an attack. It was no way to live.

If you’ve never experienced a panic attack before then check the list below to see if you suffer from any or all of these symptoms.

• Tightness in throat and chest- shortness of breath
• Feel as though your heart is racing and will jump out of your chest
• Hot flushes all over your body followed by waves of anxiety
• Feelings of fear and negative thoughts
• Not feeling connected to what is going on around you
• Overwhelming fear that the anxiety will push you over the edge

The first time a person experiences a panic attack it can feel like their world is falling down around them. Nowhere feels safe as the anxiety becomes like a stalker lurking in the background.

When this happens people begin to either avoid situations that make them anxious or they medicate themselves to the point where they are numb to the fear. I am sure you will agree neither of the above is a satisfactory solution.

There are new ways to treat this disorder and I have tried quite a few. Some successful and some not. I have found that the only way to overcome the anxiety and panic attacks is to use a technique which immediately stops you fearing another panic attack. It is very simple yet amazingly effective, without the use of medication.

Creating Future Entrepreneurs

I was reading a story from my local newspaper today about a 31 year old woman, a real entrepreneur, who took the risk of going into business to teach different types of dance to students.

This had been a goal since she started dancing lessons as a child, and her dream had always been to have her own dance studio. Well she did it and now has a very successful business.

It made me think of all the obstacles she would have faced before getting to where she is now. She would have to face the following challenges:

• Finding a studio in the right location
• Finding a studio with reasonable rent
• Finding a real estate agent who would be willing to rent out premises to someone with no prior financial history in real estate
• Possibly going to financial institutions to ask for a loan to fit out her studio
• Having enough money to advertise her studio and what she had to offer by the way of classes
• Being able to pay dance teachers
• Attracting enough students to pay all her bills and in due time, make a profit

It seems to me that you would have to be very persistent and patient to realize your dream of becoming an entrepreneur, but a lot of people do it and have become very successful.

There’s a risk, of course, that it will not turn out as you had hoped, but if you don’t step out of your "comfort zone" and be willing to do something that no one else will, then you’ll stay the same as you are and fit in with the majority of the population.

We need more entrepreneurs to step out and show that they are willing to put everything on the line to succeed at their chosen profession and in doing so, leading the way for more people to follow in their footsteps.

How I Achieved An “Unrealistic” Goal!

Have you ever heard the term "dream stealers"? I’m sure a lot of people have but aren’t sure what it means.

Whatever you do, if you have a goal you want to achieve, don’t share it with others, keep it to yourself. There are people out there who will do anything they can to steal your dream from you and tell you that "all that stuff is nonsense". The more people you tell the more they suck the energy right out of you.

The idea of a goal is to focus all your energy on it and to believe that you have already achieved it. A goal is not something you think about and sit waiting for it to happen.

A goal without a plan is just a wish. Antoine de Saint-Exupery
French writer (1900 - 1944)

For a goal to materialize you have to set out what you want and when you want it.

As an example I’ll tell you my story. My goal was shared with one other person and that was my husband!

We had lost our previous house through a bad business venture in 1990 and I was determined that some day I’d have my own home again. I started putting pictures of houses on my walls and I knew that my daughter was getting married in September 1995, so I set my goal to be in my new house by August 1995.

One Saturday afternoon my husband was working so I took a drive and came across some new blocks of land. I got talking to the salesman and he said I only needed $100 to secure a block. We had $3000 in the bank so I took the gamble and paid the deposit. My husband agreed to go along with it thankfully!

A couple of weeks later my husband was working again so I hopped in my car and started looking at display homes. I came across one I really liked and once again started chatting to the salesman who told me he could build us a house while we paid off the deposit, legal fees etc., so he came to talk to us that night and we signed up. It’s amazing how quickly things began to happen once we put up a picture board the means to attract the required deposit seemed to appear from many sources. This would not have occurred if we did not have a passionate goal.

To cut a long story short, we ended up moving into our brand new home on 4th August 1995 and all our fees etc. were paid for, and we also paid for our daughter’s wedding.

I knew that if I’d discussed my goal with anyone else they would have said I was crazy, especially when we only had $3000 to our name! But I knew with all my heart that we were going to achieve the goal no matter what stood in our way.

Stay away from the "dream stealers"!

Creating Wealth and Abundance

For anyone who wants to change their life and create wealth and abundance into their lives, there’s a great quote in the bible that sums it up beautifully.

“Ask and it shall be given to you: seek and ye shall find: knock and it shall be opened unto you. For everyone that asketh receiveth: and he that seeketh findeth and to him that knocketh it shall be opened” Matthew 7:7.

Now I’m not a religious person, but there are some great quotes in the bible, which are tools for us to learn how to live our lives abundantly in every way. I don’t just mean in the monetary sense.

The simple message is to ask for what you want! If you don’t know what you want, then there isn’t much purpose in your life. It’s like going on a road trip without a map. You have to have a plan to reach your destination.

There are many ways to create wealth and abundance, but you have to sit down and write a goal of how you’re going to achieve it. Just asking for it is not going to make it happen.

Another great quote I saw recently was, “Dream your life…live your dreams”. Basically what this quote is telling us to do is to make a plan for our lives and then set out to do it, and don’t give up until it’s been achieved.
