Fear. By Jjovina We all have fears. For everyone, we have different fears. Some fear death, some fear failures and some even fear cats! ( like me ) But we must know, fears can paralyze and most importantly, it is non-productive. We have all had times in our lives when out of nowhere fear tried to overtake all that we were and tried to convince us our life situations were hopeless. Moreover, it may have tried to present evidence that showed we were powerless to do anything about it. If this frame of thinking is allowed to take hold or there is a failure to replace it with something positive, that fear will prevail and concomitantly there will be an erosion of self confidence. The onset of fear can get a stronghold when there are anxieties, horrific experiences, or excess concerns over something, real or imagined. To understand fear, you must come face-to-face with it. You should know the sources of your fear in every minute detail. Because fear is psychological, it has to be dealt with cerebrally. Once you have isolated the things you fear, ask yourself whether they are reasonable. Is it possible you could be concealing something else about yourself you do not want to confront? You should be as objective as possible in order to tackle the source(s). When you feel in control of your life, you will cease being afraid of anything. If you think about life, it is short. Why spend it worrying and fretting and being anxious about things over which you have no control. When you determine you have no control over your life's fears, either place them in the hands of a higher power or safeguard yourself against them the best way you know how by using your intelligence and discernment. Additionally, when negativity tries to overpower you, think of something positive that once happened in your life. This is called the changing of state, which makes you change the mood of your mind and heart. When you live a life of quiet confidence and optimism, fear has no place and will depart from you. When fear rears its ugly head in an attempt to discourage you in your undertaking and sap your self-confidence, rise up and take control of your life. All that you are today had a start in either the lighter or darker corridors of your mind. You must go to that same place and examine everything you have allowed to reside there. If you wish to vanquish your fears once and for all, confront all the fears you find there. You will find they are not as intimidating as you have imagined them to be. Endeavor to replace negative thoughts with positive and encouraging ones. Use phrases like "I can do anything I set my mind to," or "If I was successful once, I can be successful again," or "If she (or he) can do it, so can I...." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FEAR NOT Do not be afraid, Fear begins in the mind, Do not be afraid, Do not be afraid, Adapted from helium. |
