			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src = "http://kiwitx.com/FromFeartoFaith.jpg" alt = "From Fear to Faith" class = "alignleft"/><strong><em>If you listen to the news of the day you will know that almost everything you hear could be summed up with one key word:</em></strong><br />
<h3 align = "center">Fear.</h3>
<p>Every day, the news is creating alarm in the minds and hearts of millions of people in this world. </p>
<p>If you even dare focus on what is happening around you, your mind will soon be filled with fear and doubts about your own future as well. </p>
<p>Here are some quick headlines which I am sure you will agree could certainly have you trembling with FEAR, <strong>IF</strong> you stop to meditate on them. . </p>
<ul>
<li>Bank of America stocks down.</li>
<li>Bank of America being sued by AIG. .</li>
<li>S &amp; P is down 500 points. It is not even sliding, it is plummeting. </li>
<li>Investors lose one trillion dollars in one day. </li>
<li>Riots in London. </li>
</ul>
<p>Now, I am NOT advocating that you and I become like ostriches burying our heads in the sand. No, these are very real situations and are definitely affecting millions of people across the world. </p>
<p>However, if you stop to meditate and FOCUS on these situations, fear could so easily grip your mind and heart. You cannot afford to let this happen, and neither will you allow it to. How do I know that? You are a champion, and champions focus on winning, not on the obstacles that cross their paths. </p>
<div class = "topiccent">The truth is that whatever you FOCUS on WILL get bigger. </div>
<p><strong>Yes these situations are real:</strong>
<ul>
<li>They ARE happening around us. </li>
<li>They may well have affected you already. </li>
<li>They are likely to affect us all in some way. </li>
</ul>
<p>BUT, does this mean that you have to be tossed around by all of the fear that goes with it? NO! For you – champion – it means you need to make a stronger and firmer decision to focus on solutions and on your life passions and dreams. You cannot afford to let go of them.  </p>
<p>And you cannot make a positive difference in this world if you allow yourself to be dragged into the negative default that contaminates the world.</p>
<p>This is why today’s affirmation from the 210 Affirmation Challenge set by John Di Lemme of Lifestyle Freedom Club&#160; is so timely:</p>
<h3 align="center">I am stepping over the fear line into Faith Land today!</h3>
<p align="left"><strong>This declaration demands of you a definite and determined decision.</strong> </p>
<p align="left"><strong>Are you going to going to allow</strong> the fear that is being stirred up in everyone around you to affect your life and destiny? </p>
<h3 align="center">OR</h3>
<p align="left"><strong>Or are you going to make a stronger and firmer decision</strong> that you<strong> WILL</strong> take control of your destiny? </p>
<p align="left">It does not matter what is happening around you, or what others decide. YOU still have the responsibility to decide for your own life </p>
<h3 align="center">I am stepping over the fear line into Faith Land today!</h3>
<p align="left">Is this your decision today? I am sure it is because this is the decision of champions and: </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The outcome of situations you face depends on your mindset.</p>
<p><img src="http://mindsetforliving.com/images/childrenrunning_IanLipman_Flickr.jpg" alt="childrenrunning_IanLipman_Flickr.jpg" align="left" />Your mindset has a lot to do with what you focus on. If you have a fixed goal that you are really determined to achieve, then no matter what happens when an obstacle tries to hinder your progress, you will not be stopped. You will become unstoppable!</p>
<p>How can you be so certain you will not let obstacles stop you from reaching your goal? The answer is simple. If your focus is fixed on your goal you WILL find a way to achieve it.</p>
<p>Your mindset will follow your focus. When you focus on winning, your mind will receive the message: &#8220;Winning is my only option&#8221;. Once this message really penetrates your mind and brain there will be no stopping you.</p>
<p><a title="tweet this" href="http://www.twitter.com/home?status=http://sn.im/kxt3j+Reading+Your+Mindset+Will+Determine+Your+Success" target="blank"><img src="http://www.mindsetforliving.com/images/tweet.jpg" alt="Tweet this" align="left" /></a>Of course, if your mind is allowing room for possible failure then some things may well trip you up. A mindset that allows room for failure is a double mind. The book of James in the Bible, tells us that a double minded man is unstable in all of his ways. (James 1:5-8)</p>
<p>If you allow thoughts of possible failure, then obstacles may well discourage you or even stop you from achieving your goals.</p>
<blockquote>
<p align="center">Make sure your mind is focused on succeeding!</p>
</blockquote>
<p>When your mindset is set on success all of your goal setting, strategy planning and action will be directed towards achieving your passion in life.</p>
<ul>
<li> There will be no thought of failing.</li>
<li> You will stay confident that you can and will win.</li>
</ul>
<p>If an obstacle does try to block but your mindset is set on success:</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Your creativity will blossom as you seek for solutions and you will either:</strong></span></p>
<table border="0" align="center">
