Conquering Fear

Fear is very crippling and if you are not a risk taker, and you allow fear to rule your life then unfortunately success will be an illusion. People who have attained comparable success had the courage of taking risks that brought immense success.

I have fears that I still battle with like starting a writing career and pushing myself to write e-book’s and to train people.

I remember vividly when I started off in a small community based organization. I taught on temperaments and guess what? All the trainees listened and took notes.

Honestly speaking, I was not well versed on the topic but I was confident. Another remarkable thing that happened, is that one of my trainees went out to a nearby school taught on the same and was paid! That was an eye opener for me and I translated my training for money….

This does not mean these moves were easy but I pushed myself to the payoffs.

What’s your fear? That small decision you need to make will make a whole lot of difference in your life. Are you in an abusive marriage or trapped in a job that you hate or addicted to a bad habit?

Here are 4 Ideas that you Could Apply to conquer fear:

· Dethrone Security

Playing safe is a gimmick and if you are in this state you have to learn to take courage as a virtue to conquer that hidden fear. Do you need to make a radical decision of that thing and take ACTION?

Life itself is a risk so security in a job, relationship, or a bad habit is a facade. Avoid things that make you safe, that hinder your success. If it’s that job you hate what steps of courage do you need to take for something you value?

· Name the Fear

When you state the fear, it becomes easier to deal with it. You can try this little exercise…Say it loud; I fear name the fear and write it down and think about about it. Confront it, one of the ways of conquering fear is doing that thing you fear most.

· Educate Yourself

Most fears are irrational, and in actual sense most of the things you fear don’t happen! Why then torture yourself with negative feelings? If your fear is lack of education or knowledge get books, or people who can educate you.

· Get Help

It’s always advisable to source for help from friends, mentors or people who have expertise in what you fear. Support groups are good sources of help for different issues out there,just look out for one that fits your fears.
