Hi friends, today I want to share with you a sort of paradox, One of the most misunderstood and and negatively tagged subject. I will be writing about the use of FEAR.
The state of being afraid is known as fear.
FEAR as an acronym is usually defined as false evidence appearing real or false evidence against reality.
it's an accumulation of doubts and what if(s), what if I fail? what if it doesn't work out? ,what if I don't get the job ? what if I make a mistake ? what if I can't figure it out ? what if I lose my money? it's a long list of what if(s) that goes on and on, the truth is there will always be reasons why you may not be able to succeed but what if you were meant to succeed ? what If it works out ? instead of letting fear decide your fate, why not channel the "what if(s)" to a more positive direction.
A lot of us have had to overcome fear the hard way because most times before the start of every beautiful journey there's a fear of whether or not we can get to our desired destination.
Disadvantages of giving in to fear
Fear weakens our immune system and can cause cardiovascular damage.
Fear limits our potentials by making us believe that we cannot
It hinders us from seeing the greatness inside of us
Fear can lead to accelerated ageing and even premature death
HOW TO OVERCOME FAER
The best way to overcome fear is to face it, we can learn more about what scares us and get prepared to face it, we can speak to a counselor, learning relaxation techniques can help one with the mental and physical feeling of fear, use your imagination in a positive way as the mind helps to restructure events sometimes.
Always talk to someone that can help you.
As unreal as it may sound there are some good sides to having some dosage of fear. The feelings of fear also might be of benefit sometimes in the following ways;
It keeps one safe, it helps you to be security conscious and alert, this can make you avoid trouble.
It can help to focus more, sometimes the fear of the future has made some people put their hands on deck, get them to work hard and have also helped them to achieve a lot.
It can also keep you in check, it stops from making certain decisions that may harm you or the people aruond you.
It pays to use our fears to our advantage by empowering ourselves and turning it into a new opportunity for growth. A coin consists of two sides, there nothing can be totally of disadvantage, even fear itself can be used to achieved greater things.
Don't let fear use you, use it!
