Yes, that is correct. In principle that's all it takes. Fear, however, blocks us from applying this principle correctly, as simple as it may seem.
If you hold onto subconscious fears, what happens is that you don't actually
focus on your goals and desires with positive intent. You may consciously set goals, but shortly thereafter you'll fall into a pattern of self-sabotage, getting distracted and sidetracked too easily.
This is a tough pattern to recognize in oneself. If you're honest with yourself though, you may see that there are certain goals you've set, but you just aren't getting anywhere with them, even though you seem physically and mentally capable of accomplishing them. It isn't for lack of time and resources but rather for lack of will. You never actually put the required energy behind them, and a common culprit is the fear of what might happen if you succeed.
