Stop Fueling Fear - We feed fear by believing and expecting the same experience again. We begin to make the past experience(s) the expectation instead of the exception.
Recognize Fear - Pay attention to your fear and ask why you are afraid. Is it from something you experienced? Is it inherited from someone else? Or is it the unknown or change you fear? You cannot begin to take your power back if you do not know its true source.
Remove Power from Fear - Take the power from fear by:
Learning about your fear - if your fear is irrational and you do not know why it exists then maybe all you need is to learn about it. Often the more you understand something the less reason you have to fear it at all.
Healing it - most fears come from our own unresolved traumas. It may be time to begin self-healing or find a therapist to help you through it.
Braving it and doing it - sometimes facing your fear is the only way through it. I have found that the anticipation or ‘expectations’ are so much worse than the actual thing you fear. I never understood my fear of heights, climbing 3 steps on a ladder made me shudder and shake, so I decided to rip the bandaid off and go skydiving… Yup, quite extreme. Letting go of the plane was THE hardest part. It was one of the best things I ever did for myself.
Quotes:
“We WILL fail, we will lose, we will get hurt, we will be laughed at and we will die… these are definite and are part of the human experience. However, it is your CHOICE to get back up, to not be defeated, to take your power back and stop fearing or fighting what cannot be controlled and decide to thrive!” - Sheree Buckman
"Get out of your own way, ditch the fear and doubt, and absolutely own your magic and power." - unknown
