How to Stop Fear from Controlling Your Mind
May 24, 2025“If you fill your mind with FEAR, doubt and unbelief in your ability to connect with, and use the forces of Infinite Intelligence, the law of autosuggestion will take this spirit of unbelief and use it as a pattern by which your subconscious mind will translate it into its physical equivalent.” Page 47 “Think and Grow Rich.”
Auto-suggestion works no matter what you feed it. If you repeat fearful, doubtful thoughts, that’s what the subconscious accepts as truth. This is the sobering part: whatever you believe and repeat, whether confidence or doubt, your subconscious will make real through your actions, habits, and outcomes.
The 6 steps are Hill’s way of protecting you from exactly what this quote warns about. They are a daily mental practice to replace fear and doubt with clarity, belief, and emotional conviction. Let’s walk through each step to show how it blocks fear and programs your subconscious for faith:
Step 1: Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire.
This focuses your mind on what you want, rather than what you fear.
Step 2: Determine what you will give in return.
This builds confidence and commitment, reducing self-doubt by creating personal responsibility.
Step 3: Establish a definite date.
A clear timeline creates urgency and reduces uncertainty which is a major source of fear.
Step 4: Create a definite plan and begin at once.
Taking action eliminates doubt. The subconscious responds positively to movement and progress.
Step 5: Write out your goal clearly and concisely.
This is your anchor statement—a mental template built on purpose, not fear.
Step 6: Read it aloud daily, with faith and emotion.
This is how you override fear. The law of auto-suggestion takes whatever you feed it. This step ensures you're feeding it belief, not doubt.
If you skip the daily repetition, then auto-suggestion still works, but against you. It builds unbelief into your subconscious blueprint, and that blueprint shapes your life. Auto-suggestion is always working. The only question is: are you using it to build faith or letting fear use it against you? That’s why the 6 steps matter. They give you a system to take control of your mental programming, and deliberately feed your subconscious a message of confidence, clarity, and belief.
