OF vs ASC vs Zen Mindset

[Shannon]

why you didn't think OF before using AM6

Because 8 months is a great deal of commitment that I can NOT (edited) afford at this time. 
I rather supplement myself with some more radical changes which AM seems to offer, and count on the fear removal practices I have already implemented. I'm happy if I get 50% of the change AM is meant to provide and continue improving myself afterward, once I pass a certain threshold that I want to achieve in the coming 3-4 months. 


Speaking of OF, I wonder if @Shannon is familiar with Napoleon Hill and the major fears he mentions. It is said, and experienced by myself, that once you overcome those, most of the remaining fears dissolve on their own. It's like a keystone habit that brings other habits with it. However, one must keep in mind that fears may come back invisibly like it did in my case. I totally understand and approve the necessity 8 months usage requirement of the OF program. 
Yet, I think I'm free of most fears, just having a little self-esteem issue in certain areas at the moment and a little fear of not utilizing my youth as much as I want to. Other than that, my interest is mostly to improve what is already good. I'd say I'm 90% happy with who I am, in fact really really happy in many areas, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna lay back and dissolve in the comfort zone. I've got this innate will to push myself more and more, and AM seems very promising.

In my research, I determined that fear acts like a combination of trees, tentacles and spider webs.  There is a root fear that grows into a tree of fears, and each branch moves about as that fear is explored, and sometimes will cross paths with another fear, creating an intersection point.  This strengthens the whole construct, and it becomes like a web of tree branches that hold each other in place.  If you remove a fear, then all fears that "descend from" that fear will disappear, much like chopping off a branch of a tree gets rid of all the smaller and smaller branches and twigs it gives birth to.  But unless you remove the core fear (the trunk) and it's roots... it will usually just regenerate over time.

OF seeks to identify and remove the root fear and it's roots and remove them.  That's why it's worth running, and that's why it takes that long.  Consciously, you're usually entirely unaware of between 90 and 97% of your fears.  Life changes dramatically on OF because it's removing fears you didn't even know you had.
