Fear is a major barrier to success. Most people are being stalled from succeeding online, because they're afraid!
What are they afraid of? FAILURE, REJECTION and the UNKNOWN!
Do you know that Intense desire is the enemy of fear.
The first way to overcome fear is by having a strong desire to do what you're afraid of. If you want to overcome the main barrier to success (fear) then your first step is that you've got to get more fed up than AFRAID!

If you want a good example of how belief helped someone to succeed, then I have a great story for you...
The Invention Of Vaseline
It the late 19th century there was a young chemist named Robert Chesebrough who sold kerosene.
He got his kerosene from the oil of sperm whales, but by 1859 he was put out of business.
In 1859, Robert Chesebrough took off for a Pennsyslvania oil field to "strike it rich." What he came back with made him rich beyond his wildest dreams.
But he didn't become rich from oil!
Oil field workers had told him about this "sticky stuff" that stuck to the drilling rigs. The riggers hated this stuff - it caused the drilling rigs to seize up.
For all the problems this substance caused, the riggers found one small use - when rubbed on a cut or bruise it helped it to heal faster.
He bottled the stuff up and dragged it back to his
He began a search to duplicate the petroleum-based lubricant, and by trial and error, followed he was able to extract the key ingredient - the translucent material we now know as petroleum jelly.
But it had to be tested, and tested it was.
He needed a guinea pig to test it out on. But who could he use?
Chesebrough cut his OWN hands and arms, burned himself with flames and acids and each time he would then covered them with his new gel.
ALL the self-inflicted wounds responded to his petroleum jelly and were healed!
Satisfied that his new grease had healing properties, he took to the road with his own medicine show, but first he named his gel.
Using the German word for water (wasser) and the Greek word for oil (elaion) he came up with "Vaseline."
He took it out on the road and would demonstrate it by cutting or burning himself and then applying his vasleine. He also showed his audience the healed scars from past experiments.
Amazingly this worked.
Soon he was selling a jar a minute, and when these ran out people begged their druggists to order more from Chesebrough. It was used for everything: chest colds, chapped hands, nasal congestion, and even to remove stains from furniture.
By the turn of the twenty century it had penetrated the American market and was entering
Although its miracle properties were eventually debunked, Chesebrough himself was always a true believer.
He lived to age 96, revealing shortly before he died the secret to his longevity: Every day of his life he ate a spoonful of vaseline!
(* Not recommended! DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME! :)
Cheesbrough succeeded because he believed so much in his product/idea that he refused to give up!
