How Imagination Freed A Boy From Bullying
In your own life, you can similarly choose to be nurtured by
identifying with someone who has succeeded. By relating to
someone, whether through reading about them or actually
associating with them, you can stop relating to your own
ingrained negative attitudes.
While your bullies may not be physical, like Ben's, but more
subtle, like fear and self-doubt, by assuming an image that
inspires you, by pretending to be someone bigger and stronger,
someone more capable, you can overcome your own particular
demons.
Assume an image of power and act out your fantasy. When it is
acted out in the real world, it assumes a life-force of its own
which will pull you into a positive future. Your whole
personality will be transformed by the experience of changing a
wish into an event.
The Bottom Line
The only way past fear is through it. Fear is a wall that holds
you back. It stymies your personal power. Fear is a source of
torment, a bully who will beat you down until you face it and
fight back.
