CONTENTS 28 LIVING THE GODDESS LIFESTYLE: THE GIFT OF FEAR – A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON THAT B*TCH NAMED FEAR! by Lisa Marie Rosati One of the most empowering choices you can make is to stop living in a state of fear. Fear robs you of the present moment, which is all you really have anyway. There are so many ways that fear rears its ugly head in our lives. There’s the fear of failure, the fear of not being enough, the fear of being judged, and so on. If allowed to run amuck, fear will paralyze you and your ability to live full out. Fear originates with your thoughts. Buying into the thought and allowing it to stop you, is up to you… it’s your choice. YOU get to choose! “Do you think courage means being fearless? Or daring? Courage, real courage, is taking three steps when it terrifies you.” CATHERINE ANDERSON 31 THE ONLY MAP YOU’LL EVER NEED (FOR EVERY DREAM YOU HAVE…) by Boni Lonnsburry What if I told you I had a map that would turn thoughts into gold, sadness into joy, failure into success and loneliness into love? Would you follow it? Of course you would! Who wouldn’t? Manifesting reality is a result of what you think and feel. How important is it that you reach your dreams? If not so important, stay where you are, but don’t be surprised if you don’t get anywhere. However, if you are serious about creating your dreams, the map to a delicious life can get you there. One step at a time. 35 THE UNIVERSE IS CALLING YOU… ARE YOU LISTENING? by Sara Wiseman All day long, in every single moment, the Universe is communicating with us. When we’re busy, not paying attention or caught up in the various dramas of human life, we don’t always hear this quiet whisper. That’s because the Universe doesn’t speak to us in the language of the world. Instead, it communicates in the language of the soul. When we allow the Universe to lead us in this way we can receive the message clearly. 9
