Living Without Fear Part 5 Today Is A New day In Your Life.

The closer and closer you get to the end of the mini-series, the further and further your problem with fear will fade away.

You’ll get the help you’re so desperately seeking, and the economic recession won’t seem like such a weight on your shoulders.

Just keep reading for solutions…

Here’s the bombshell:   The more you try to avoid discomfort, the harder it will be to make important changes.

Change involves risk.

Change requires you to face your fears and  step out of your comfort zone – both of  which point to one thing…

…Change will usually give rise to uncomfortable feelings.

By now you’re well aware of the whole vicious cycle that results when you try to avoid discomfort and ignore your fears.

The only effective solution is true ACCEPTANCE. Not tolerance or “putting up with it.”

So, make room for the discomfort your fears cause, and focus on taking effective action.

The mind is an expert at coming up with reasons for not doing the things we really want to do.

But the first thing to realize is that reasons are just excuses.

The second thing to realize is that thoughts don’t control facts.

Does this surprise you?

Just check your own experience. How often had you been fearful of something that never came to pass?

With me you can learn to stop the struggle.  That is IF you are willing.  Whenever a fear presents itself, you can either say yes or no to it.

If you say yes to your fears, your life stagnates and shrinks.

If you say no to your fears, your life gets bigger and better.

If you keep saying no, there’s no guarantee life will get easier, because the next fear may be just as difficult, or worse.

But saying no to fear will become more of a habit, and the experience you gain from this gives you a reservoir of strength.

Even if you don’t WANT to say no, you can still CHOOSE to.  And each time you make that choice, you grow stronger.

And, at the same time, the more you practice this, the less discomfort you’ll actually have to deal with.

Eventually, your fears will become a lot easier to live with because they don’t get amplified.

In other words, you’re willing to accept your natural fears, even though you may not want them.

So now, turn your attention to giving yourself the opportunity to undermine the struggle that fear has created in you.

At this point, you have a choice.

You can turn back or keep going…

I suggest you keep going….

Good luck and if you’re still having struggles dealing with fear drop me a line.
