5 Ways to Find More Certainty

Things are changing faster than anytime in history, and the world seems filled with uncertainty. Perhaps you've recently had moments of unease, anxiety, or tension. There are five ways to feel more in control of your life and destiny.

1) Stack past references: you've had times where you've mastered something difficult, took a courageous step and gained confidence, or gotten a victory over a fear. Emotionally connect with those positive times and stack them together to empower your level of certainty that you can face whatever is in front of you now.
2) Get information: uncertainty is largely based on the unknown, and by getting more information you reduce or eliminate the unknowns. There are millions of ways to find out more, including asking others.
3) Model success: many of the most successful people modeled resourceful patterns of other successful people. You can save yourself a lifetime of trial and error just by doing this.
4) See/feel/pre-live it: Visualize it, feel how you would be as if the positive event or way of being has already happened for you. The discipline is to live in this great feeling space until the fruition comes. The point is that you're always living in some space, so which one will give you the best results?
5) Take direct action: First you must move your thought in a new way, then move your body by doing what is directly required to be/do/have what's in your heart. This is one of the best ways to eliminate fear, gain a powerful sense of identity, and discover what's possible.

Life is short, play with all you have and enjoy the ride!
