Ignite your passion, follow your talent. Part 1 Breaking the cycle of fear: fear chokes your talent; fear of inadequacy - what if I fail? fear of rejection - what if I don't make it to the inner circle? fear of scarcity - what if someone else steals my piece of the action? fear of reality - isn't there a quick fix? fear of the unknown - what is lurking out there? fear of authority - what if I break the rules? fear of ageing -what if I'm obsolete? Part 2 Your strongest suit: talent is the DNA of your destiny; discovering your talent; stop trying to fix yourself. Part 3 Possessed by passion: what's a nice kid like you doing in a joint like this? remind me, what does passion look like? what colour is your passion? Part 4 P Action is the antidote to fear: how to get lucky; what's stopping you? Part 5 Forged in the fire - the passages of a fearless executive; passage one - every executive starts in the mailroom; passage two - proving ground; passage three -the fearless executive.
