Why is overcoming fear so important?
It is so important because Fear is the major obstacle that gets in the way of your happiness and success. The funny thing is, that fear is not real! You can be regretful of your past, but it’s gone now. The present is here but it’s not too scary. So your fears can only exist in the future. But since the future is not here yet, guess what, your fear is not here either.
But how does it affect you in our life? Well, the affect it has on you is that it robs you of the good things in your life. You see, it creates a distortion in your mind. It makes problems look bigger than they really are and it makes your ability to deal with those problems much smaller than what you are. So it becomes a complete distortion of reality. Ask yourself, how can you deal with the real world when you are seeing it from a totally distorted point of view?
What happens is that it becomes a ceiling. You can only rise to the level of your greatest fear. So, as better things happen in your life, in different areas, like more prosperity, more love and joy, your fear will knock you right back down you to where it wants you.
You can overcome your fears. Remember they are not real.
Here is a good technique to eliminate fear:
1st identify what your fear is
Look for area in your life where you feel stress. Stress is life’s way of saying you’re in fear of something. So have a look for those stress producing areas. These are the areas that you’re stuck and will have your greatest fears around them. These will keep you stuck at exactly where you are now. Remember, you will only rise to the level of your greatest fear.
2nd identify where you think that fear came from
Don’t get too hung up about this if you can’t identify it. But it would be great to see where it originates from. Maybe it was passed down from one of your parents. Maybe it was something happened to you when you were a young child. So then you can say, ah, that’s were it came from!
3rd if this fear came true, today, in your life, what would happen to you
So start by writing it out. What would happen to you? It’s important that you write it out because it goes into your subconscious mind. If this became real, what actually might happen? Would you become homeless, would you die? Go to death and beyond, like the afterworld, then what comes next and then next, keep going.
Play with your fear, using this technique. What happens is, it will take the electrical charge out of the fear. What we are trying to do is to diminish the electrical charge that this fear is having on your life. Remember, it’s distorting everything. If the mind attracts your reality and it’s full of fear, guess what, you will attract more fearful situations, more confusion and create more fearful situations as well.
Become fearless, it will give you much more in your life. The more you can control and diminish the electrical charges, the more happiness, the more love and the more prosperity will come to you.
Play with your fears, over and over. Your success is limited to the level of your greatest fears. Why don’t you let your fears go and let your ideal life, your dream life, come about. Start to create that burning fire inside you. Just do it now!
