In this episode, we’re using Newton's Laws to get things moving in your life.   There are natural tendency for things to remain the same and resist change in their state of motion.  What directions are you headed? Are you moving in the direction that will get you to your desired destination?   

You'll learn how using force can propel you towards your goal.  Remember, that Newton also teaches us that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.  This law keeps you mindful of the simple principle of "cause and effect", what you give is what your get.

This episode of The Purpose Project is a follow-up to my bonus show about fear.  I elaborate on the 3 main types of fears: External, Internal and Subconscious.  I also discuss “Limiting Beliefs” and how beliefs are not facts.  By removing these irrational beliefs, you will in turn eliminate fears.  I give a systematic way to confront your fears by using desensitization.
