      should be yes, but this system survives off fear. i think the parents should take more responsiblity in teaching their children instead of leaving everything to schools that work for a much different agenda.

    I have a COLOSSAL fear of the dark, of being alone. I hate it so much. And this video actually helped me an LOT. I got to breathe and realize that if I control this fear, I'd be able to sleep better and grow as a person. Thank you so much for this. You made my whole week!

    I have been practising positive affirmations, hypnosis, visualisations etc to try and remove fear for years. This, and knowing that confidence is more experience related than mentally related, is the only technique that has helped me achieve the things I want. Thank you :)

    I got something out of this. I'm looking to walk through a lifelong fear of public dancing. Failed miserably a few nights ago, but am climbing off the canvas to give it another look. Best I like what you said about not approaching it to get rid of fear, but to walk through it. I've heard the quote by Cus D'Amato where he told Mike Tyson that all fighters felt the same fear, but champions learned to walk through it. Very inspirational. By the way, I'm 61 years old.

    Very very very well done. I loved this. I had traumatic events happen to me which in turn left me in the hospital for five months and had to re-learn how to do everything. I deal with flash backs and pain on a daily basis but this video has helped me with taking a different approach to fears. Breath! You have to breath. Think about what you want not what you don't want. Thank you man keep up the videos!

You now have given me the courage to take action, & allow myself to receive all the Prosperity , and new opportunities that are waiting for me. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. I am eternally grateful. I love you for helping me to stop standing in my own way.

    Thanks, Brian. Gotta say -- was not expecting such clear-cut, no-nonsense wisdom with a lap-based, non-white balanced video (unless you actually have blue notebooks!). A great photo editor told me, I don't care what way you show me your photos -- just make sure your photos show me something! And you know the best jazz players have the most messed-up horns (Charlie Parker's was in hoc when he needed drug money). So keep dropping wisdom, in any way, shape or form you can. And get that life101 website up -- it's gonna be great, and so helpful to so many people!! Thanks again. Really.

    I've been on the self help circuit since I was teenager, reading countless blogs and watching videos. And I got jaded. But watching this inspired me. Even if someone doesn't buy into the subject matter, just listening to you speak passionately is really moving. Great video man.
    Also editing your notes while you instruct is just damnnnn compelling. Gives me that Draw My Life vibe, and it really held my attention throughout.

    @stressfreeyou1385 6 років тому

    Brian, I couldn't agree more with your thesis. It applies to so many things and I've always overcome fear by rationalising the the result of fear. Think "what's the worst that could happen?". If it's doesn't get you arrested or physically hurt you, you can handle it.
    I've used this in anything from entering rooms where I don't know anyone to making board presentations. And I can tell you addressing my fears has had a whole lot of positive upsides.

    Skydiving progression with many opinions about fear from many in the sport at the DZ and online - this one makes the most sense to me and put me over the edge ( no pun intended lol ) tomorrow I will use this to make my jump for the 15th time from 14000 feet - the ultimate test of fear. The first fourteen times I had an instructor at my side - tomorrow I'm on my own. Thank you very much.
