Conquering Fear
In order that you might conquer fear, you need to actually break it down and assimilate all its aspects. Analyse the key components and find their solutions.
1. Step back and separate your emotion from the event or thought.
- Sounds simple I know but not so easy to do at first but with practice this can become a useful tool in your fear busting belt.
- The key about emotion is that it either distorts or empowers any situation and thus when you are in fear it will operate to the negative and show you all the consequences causing your body to become immobilised.
- When you remove the emotional aspect you are telling yourself that nothing outside of yourself is real and that everything you are thinking and imagining is exactly that, an imagination of yours, a creation and thus subject to change.
- This leads you to step outside of the cycle of despair into one of calm where you can see the situation for what it is… an opportunity to change something in your life.
2. Analyse the event and find the vital aspects
- I am not talking about analysis paralysis here as this leads to mere confusion but rather a clear minded approach of looking at something and breaking it into a series of occurrences or thoughts.
- The crux about this is that you are willing to look deeply into the "story" you have created and to see the elements as they are displayed. The ability to look at something without recrimination and negative judgement allows you to acknowledge how something serves you and how to use this to take the next step instead of remaining imprisoned.
- Everything in life has within it both a seed of opportunity or an atomic bomb of destruction; the only determinant is your attitude and your willingness to be honest with yourself. Ask yourself this, how much does your life mean to you? Are you willing to face anything in your path in order that you might fulfil your truth? Answering yes means you have what it takes to look at your roles in the creation of the current situation and to then act accordingly.
