Introduction
Hi, my name is Joan and I’m delighted to have you here.

Firstly, CONGRATULATIONS for making a commitment to personal

growth and development and investing in yourself. This book has been
designed specifically for individuals like you who are dedicated to
improving the results in all areas of their lives!

Recent studies have shown that a large percentage of Americans are

interested in changing themselves in order to lead better lives. By
following the ideas and exercises presented to you in this
transformational book, you are automatically moving yourself into the
top 1% of high achievers in our part of the world!

Are you willing to change yourself so that you have the power to improve
your circumstances? Unleash Your Dreams has been written to open the
doorway of your heart and empower you with the knowledge on how to
experience your heart’s true desires.

Action is the key! Most people stay in their comfort zone because they
fear change. They want to avoid the pain of change, of trying something
different. However, your dreams are outside your comfort zone. You
must decide to get uncomfortable and break away from the daily habits
that have created the life you now live.

There is a famous quote that says:

“One can choose to go back toward safety or forward toward
growth. Growth must be chosen again and again; fear must be
overcome again and again.” Abraham Maslow

Follow the instructions in this book by taking definite action. This will
ensure that you are moving in the direction of self improvement, and
therefore moving toward a better life.

Your journey to unleash your dreams begins here. Enjoy!

CHAPTER 1: What Are Your Dreams?

WE all have dreams. We all want to live beautiful lives. Why is it then that
most people do not realise their dreams? The answer lies in our hidden
fears. Do you know what you are fearful of?

Many of us struggle to face the same hidden fears and buried dreams
that plague us for years and years. Our desires seem to point one way,
but our actions don’t lead to that. We sometimes know what we want,
but we don’t seem courageous and committed enough to achieve them.
We focus on the same, repeated actions that we think will bring us
happiness, but we never quite achieve what we set out to do.

For example, we may tell ourselves that we want to be committed to a

true relationship, but we end up tied to the wrong person for life. If you
are ready to ditch your current unsatisfactory life and claim a new and
better one, there are ways to achieve that.

Are you willing to change yourself so that you have the power to improve
your circumstances? Unleash Your Dreams has been written to open the
doorway of your heart and empower you with the knowledge on how to
experience your heart’s true desires.

“You are never too old to

set another goal or to
dream a new dream.”
– C.S. Lewis

STEP 1: FIND OUT YOUR TRUE AND DEEPEST DESIRES
Know thyself. This can be done by understanding what you value and
what brings you the most joy in life. What are you most passionate
about? Have you noticed that when you are doing something you love,
time seems to just fly and you don’t even realise it? If yes, then that is a
good sign of something you might want to have in your life.

Ask yourself: “If I had nothing holding me back, what kind of life would I
want to lead?” That will surely lead you in the right direction.

STEP 2: DESCRIBE YOUR VISION IN DETAIL

You can do this by doing a visualization exercise. This is one of the most
important steps. When you want to manifest the life you want, you have
to create a clear vision of what it should look like. You can write this
down in detail or you could create a vision board. This will help you to
create a clear and full picture of what your desired life would look like.

Ask yourself: “If I had a magic wand to make anything happen, what
would my life look like?”

STEP 3: FEEL THE EMOTIONS

Once you are ready, you can take a moment to start envisioning the
actual outcome. Start to imagine the sights, the sounds, the smells and
even the taste of achieving what you want. As you go along, don't forget
to feel the emotions you would feel, as if this "life" was your reality now.

Ask yourself: "How do I feel when all my visualizations are in focus?”

STEP 4: TAKE ACTION

It is said that “Rome was not built in a day.” Similarly, the life you want to
create won’t happen in one day but will only materialise in a series of
days and actions of working towards your goal. Don’t get too caught up
with your progress, but instead, focus on the present. Set daily or weekly
actions to get to where you want.

Ask yourself: “What can I do today to inch closer to my desired life?”

 4
STEP 5: PERSEVERE TO THE END
Without a doubt, when you are creating the life you want, you will be
faced with challenges. Hence, you should expect that to happen but have
faith in yourself. Don’t ever give up. Keep going. An important point to
note is to see yourself facing these challenges and, most importantly,
overcoming them when you are in the process of visualizing. Ask
yourself: “What would I do when I am faced with a challenge?”

As you visualize the life you want and follow the five steps above, you will
start to find your life reflecting your visualizations. Remember that many
people, including celebrities and motivational gurus who started without
much in their lives such as Jim Carrey and Bob Proctor, got to where they
are now by visualizations, too.

Trust the Universe, have faith and see where it takes you! Persistence is
much of what separates the successful from the pure wishful thinkers.
Distinguish yourself by staying motivated even in the toughest of
circumstances.
"Never be ashamed! There are some who will
hold it against you, but they are not worth
bothering with." - J. K. Rowling.

CHAPTER 2: What Are You Afraid Of?

THE next thing you need to do to unleash your dreams is to identify your
fears. I believe that fear is the single biggest obstacle that holds people
back from fulfilling their potential. Fear of failure, fear of rejection, fear
of success, fear of not being good enough, fear of being judged, etc. We
need to ask ourselves where our fear comes from.

Psychologists believe that humans are the most fearful creatures on

earth because, unlike animals, we have the ability to learn, think, and
create fear in our minds. We scare ourselves by imagining the worst
possible outcomes, because of the need to protect ourselves from
danger.

Fear is a highly debilitating energy. Whether our fears are subtle or

obvious, most of them are irrational and we experience them on a
regular basis. So, if you have some inexplicable fears, don’t feel
ashamed. Some of us are just better than others at hiding them. Often,
the real issue is not the fear itself, but how we hold it in our minds.

What are you really afraid of? What is holding you back to change? To
help you know yourself better, ask the following questions:
What is it that you totally hate to do?
Do you hate it because it triggers a deeper fear within you?
What makes you feel anxious? What are the triggers?
What are some of your biggest and rational fears?
Is there something you really want to do, but are holding back
because of fear? What is it that you are you scared of?
Are you afraid of what other people think of you?
Are you afraid to know the truth about yourself and/or your
situation?
Are you afraid of becoming successful? Does it scare you? Why?
Is there something you are ignoring? If yes, what is it?
 6
For each of your fears, try to see if it is realistic. Does this fear make
sense? Is it rational? Is it logical? Is it factual? Is it true? Or is the fear just
an imagination in your head? After all, we know that FEAR stands for
“False Evidence Appearing Real.” You need to overcome them so that
they will no longer control you.

However, to effectively banish them from your life, instead of just

thinking about these fears, record them in a journal. When you answer
the questions above, write them down on paper. It will force you to
analyse why you are afraid. The questions are designed to trigger your
fears and bring them to the fore so you can confront them. Is this going
to be comfortable for you? Absolutely not. Deep inner work never is!

Once you identify your fears and the experiences that you associate with
them, you become more empowered to take action to change them.
Eventually, you will discover that your fears become smaller and smaller,
and you become stronger over time.
"Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds
confidence and courage. If you want to conquer
fear, do not sit home and think about it.
Go out and get busy." - Dale Carnegie
 7

CHAPTER 3: Conquer Your Fears

HAVING identified your fears, you are now well on your way to healing
and putting yourself on the trajectory to growth. You are one step closer
to living your desired life. Overcoming fears takes time and commitment.
To achieve good results, I strongly recommend that you adopt the
following strategies:

STEP 1: ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU NEED TO CHANGE

It’s not easy to change, and that is a belief that many hold. Remember
that when you want to do, think, or feel differently, you’ve already
achieved the first step, and that is recognizing that something must
change, that you have to first let go of your fears and do something
about them. That means you not only have to accept the need to let go,
but you also need to feel that it is yours to take on and change.

STEP 2: GRATITUDE IS KEY

Do you count your blessings every day? If you want to learn how to
overcome fear, gratitude is key. From personal experience, I have
learned that it’s difficult to experience fear and gratitude at the same
time. They are literally on opposite ends of the continuum of the human
experience.

When you are experiencing difficult times in life, it’s easy to drop into
fear. Everything feels overwhelming. In that energetic space, it can be
hard to stay grounded. Developing a gratitude practice allows you to not
drown in fear. It doesn’t mean that you won’t still feel it, but the fear will
be alleviated, hence allowing you to see the positive side of your
struggle.

Many well-known psychologists believe that gratitude is strongly and

consistently associated with more happiness. Gratitude helps people feel
more positive emotions, relish good experiences, improve their physical,
mental and social health, and deal better with adversity.
 8
Anyone who experiences fear knows that there is almost always a story
attached to whatever it is that you’re fearful of. Regardless of what your
story is, the running theme is, “I can’t do something.” Fear loves to hang
out with your inner critic and come up with worst-case scenarios about
what might happen.

Gratitude helps keep these limiting stories at bay. When you practise
gratitude, your brain shifts to what is currently working instead of what is
not. The next time that fear tries to fill your head, replace that thought
with an empowering one. Believe me, it works.

STEP 3: LEARN TO LET GO

Are you a control freak? If so, you’re not alone. This is how a lot of people
manage their fears, or so they think. Unfortunately, control does not
work in overcoming fear. All it actually does is masking our fears so learn
to release control. Very often, fear results in controlling behaviour, and
when this behaviour does not give us the results we are seeking, it
further intensifies our fears. This fear-and-control cycle leaves a lot of
people feeling drained and defeated. The reality is that there will always
be people and events that are far beyond our control. That’s just how life
works.

“Fear does not exist

anywhere
except in the mind.”
— Jack Canfield
 9
STEP 4: ADOPT A POSITIVE MINDSET
Positive affirmations can be used to fight almost any negative thought
pattern, which are very helpful when you want to overcome fear. Using
them can help you to retrain the way you think and have your fears
reframed as positive statements. Research shows that you can actually
train your subconscious mind such that it will help you to attract exactly
what you desire in life.

So, instead of saying “I am afraid of doing this because I might fail,” look
in the mirror and say to yourself, “I am ready to change. I will not fail. I
can take it.” The more you use positive affirmations, the stronger they
become.

A good practice to adopt is to commit to making positive affirmations the

first thing you wake up in the morning. This positive mindset will set the
tone of the day for you. When done on a daily basis, in the long run,
these affirmations can set you on the path to transforming your old
behaviour and enable you to live your desired life.

STEP 5: OVERCOME ONE FEAR A DAY

Living in your comfort zone will get you nowhere in life, and it certainly
will not help you to overcome fear. In my experience, not doing the
things that scare you will only increase the likelihood that your fears will
grow and inevitably take over every decision that you make.

I want to encourage you to do one thing every day that scares you. It can
be something small, for example, speaking up in a small group of people.
Or, taking a walk on your own instead of seeking a companion. Challenge
yourself! All that matters is that you take action. Make it a habit to get
comfortable being uncomfortable.

Putting yourself in new and uncomfortable situations triggers a unique

part of the brain that releases dopamine, a chemical that gives you a
high. Ultimately, when you condition yourself to do one thing that scares
you every day, that very fear starts to fade away, and your courage
grows. Soon, you will feel more and more confident of yourself.

CHAPTER 4: Overcome Your Self-Limiting
Beliefs
HAVE you ever felt like you’re the only thing standing in your own way? I
am right there with you. To this day, it is a challenge to get out of my own
head and overcome self-limiting beliefs. They are often so ingrained in
our daily lives that it can be difficult to dig up the root cause of these
beliefs and plant a new belief in their place.

What is a self-limiting belief? A self-limiting belief is the little voice inside

our head that holds us back from doing what we truly want to do. Self-
limiting beliefs love to rear their ugly heads in times of uncertainty.
When things are intimidating, cause us discomfort, or there is no clear
path, they are there – nagging us to just drop what we really want to do
and return to our normal routines. How do we change our own self
limiting beliefs?

STEP 1: IDENTIFY YOUR BELIEFS

This will no doubt be a long process. However, it can be absolutely
enlightening. The chance to learn, rediscover and reinvent yourself is an
exciting and empowering journey. To start, you need to be able to
recognise them.

"Obstacles don't have to

stop you. If you run into a
wall, don't turn around and
give up. Figure out how to
climb it, go through, or
work around it."
- Michael Jordan

STEP 2: FIND OUT THE SOURCE OF YOUR BELIEFS
Self-limiting beliefs may not have been entirely created by you. There is a
good chance they stem from what we were told, overheard, or how we
were treated in our childhood. Or, they are an accumulation of advice
and ideas given us by our family and friends. It’s important to note that
beliefs are not facts. However, deeply ingrained beliefs can indeed be
mistaken as facts. These beliefs are often nothing more than conclusions
you have drawn based on your past experiences.

The root cause is important to reflect on, but what’s more critical is
taking full ownership for these beliefs in your current reality. By taking
responsibility, you move out of victim mode and into empowerment
mode. Remember that your limiting beliefs are assumptions you make
about reality that aren’t true in your particular situation. They aren’t
helpful, and they certainly don’t serve you or the goals you want to
achieve.

STEP 3: BE WILLING TO CHALLENGE YOURSELF

Having thrown doubt on your limiting beliefs, it’s time to consider the
consequences of holding onto them. Think long and hard about the
following questions:

What will result if I carry on with this limiting belief in the short term
and the long term?
If I don’t change what I believe, how will they affect me emotionally,
spiritually, financially and socially?
How will all this make me feel?
Given all this, why is it important to make this change right now?

The more pain you can associate with holding onto this belief, the more
motivated you will feel to make a positive change in your life. To make it
more real, feel the anger, experience, the pain, think about the regrets of
not changing and allow yourself to grieve. The more emotions you feel,
the more motivation you will have to change.
 13
10
STEP 4: REPLACE OLD BELIEFS WITH THE NEW
To move forward, you must now choose a new empowering belief that
you would like to use. To unlock the new, you need to consider the goals
that you would like to achieve, the values that need be changed, the
person that you would want to become. Then, ask yourself these
questions:

What would I believe about myself in the pursuit of my goal?

What would I believe after having achieved my goal?
How would I think about the obstacles I might confront along
the journey?
How would I benefit from this new belief In the short-term and in the
long-term?
How will all this make me feel about myself?
To what extent is this belief likely to empower me to reach my goal?

After you have replaced an old belief, you must take immediate action
and get into the habit of using your new empowering belief as often as
possible. Initially, expect to feel a little discomfort and pain. That’s
normal. With persistence and commitment, you will get through it. Just
keep moving forward. Don’t lose your momentum. Be flexible. Revise
and refine your belief as and when the need arises in your journey.
 14
10
STEP 5: KEEP A JOURNAL
It would be helpful to write down your new belief on a sheet of paper
and carry it around with you throughout the day. Read your new belief
as often as possible until it begins to feel comfortable and natural. As a
guide, you can use the prompts below to gain clarity in your writing:

Write down the situations in your life where you are not happy with
your reality
Write down limiting beliefs you have that either caused you to make
the decision to get there, or are keeping you stuck in the situation
Write down the type of reality you want to create
What kind of beliefs does the version of you who lives this reality
have?
How would this version of you live out these beliefs. How would this
version of you act, speak, interact with others, walk into a room?
What kind of decisions would you make?
What can you choose to believe today to align with the reality you
want to create?

Overcoming our limiting beliefs is

not easy. The process takes a lot of
work and it’s not just something that
you do once and then all is hunky-
dory. It is a process that you’ll most
likely revisit again and again and
that’s normal. We must, therefore,
commit ourselves to long term
change. And our beliefs are, of
course, at the core of that
transformation. With every limiting
belief you transform, your self
confidence will grow and you
become stronger and more
resilient.
 15

CHAPTER 5: Decide What Matters Most

THE final step is to ask yourself what matters most to you in the short
time that you inhabit the earth. What are your most important priorities
in life? What matters to you more than your job, your car, your house, or
your bulging bank account? What would make you drop everything else
for? Is it your partner, religion, family, health or personal growth? How
can you make sure that you focus your attention on what truly matters
to you? The following are some of the most important goals that matter
to people:

1. INTEGRITY
From business to interpersonal relationships, when you live life with
honesty and commitment to ethical values, you’ll find that a rewarding
sense of wholeness awaits you. Integrity is a goal that will help you feel
like you’re making the world a better place with your presence.

2. TRUE HAPPINESS
Happiness is not really a destination as much as it is a state of mind. A
billionaire could be miserable about what they don’t have, while a
homeless dude could be happy to score a hot shower and a free meal at
the local shelter. Happiness is all about perspective. While goals relating
to tangible things like money can prove unsatisfying quests, the search
for genuine happiness is one that will help you gain a more fulfilled and
serene life.

"Happiness lies in the

joy of achievement
and the thrill of
creative effort." -
Franklin Roosevelt
 16
10
4. CONNECTION
Human beings are social creatures, so forging good relationships is the
key to thriving and feeling happy. Family, professional and personal
relationships are all crucial components to providing a sense of
connectedness with the rest of humanity — so form good friendships
and foster existing links with family. At the same time, relationships do
need boundaries, so learning how to create healthy interactions is also
crucial for developing your sense of identity.

5. STAY IN GOOD HEALTH

Nobody can be successful in life if they are feeling tired and sick all the
time. Take time to stay healthy. Exercising, watching your diet and
sleeping well every night are so crucial and, yet, many people fail to pay
attention to them. Being active – even just a little bit – is proven to help
give you a boost when you are feeling down. A quick walk down the
street, dance around the kitchen or a satisfying stretch in a chair are all
good pick-me-ups. Avoid alcohol and nicotine. While this may seem like
an all clear to have happy hour all day, this could lead to depression,
addiction and making it more difficult to fight an infection!

Some other things you could do would be to try an online exercise or

yoga class; walk your dog twice as much as you normally do, or just walk
around your block multiple times a day on a schedule. Alternatively, play
music and dance around the house. It will definitely put a spin in your
steps and lift your spirit instantly!

MY DEEPEST APPRECIATION

IF you have read this far into the book, I suspect that you find
difficulty in following your dreams. Even after you’ve analysed
your fears and self-limiting beliefs and put them into perspective,
you may still be wondering how to move forward. So, if you are
still struggling with deciding what matters most, be good to
yourself and give yourself some time to sort through what may
be very challenging choices.

I strongly encourage you to surround yourself with helpful, loving

and sincere people who will support you in achieving your
dreams. If need be, you could also seek professional help in the
form of a teacher, professional counsellor, therapist, or mentor
who can help you see things with more clarity. Together, you and
your support network can move forward to help you confront
your hidden fears, and remove your self-limiting beliefs in order
to unleash your dreams.

I want to thank you for going through the entire book. Many
people download or buy books but never really go through
them. It means a lot to me that you did.

I hope that you found the techniques and strategies shared

useful in your endeavour for a better life.

Take care.

Yours Truly,
Joan Howes
