I can’t count anymore the number of times I’ve written about FEAR. As a psychologist, it’s a constant subject in my studies and daily sessions with clients. As a peak performance coach, I find that I learn more about my clients based on what they are afraid of; therefore, I can help them better. It’s a fascinating subject really.
Fear is not negative. Oftentimes it is necessary. Fear, despite its validity, is not always warranted though. Today, I’d like to share some of the things you should and should not be afraid of.
Do not fear:
♦ change
♦ the future
♦ disagreements
♦ uncertainties
♦ lack of control
♦ impermanence
♦ death
Fear these instead:
♦ stagnation
♦ not living in the present moment
♦ lack of new perspectives
♦ the boring and predictable
♦ lack of awareness
♦ imbalances
♦ not experiencing how it is to truly live
Fear, just like resistance, is a master teacher. Your fears will teach you what you need to learn to thrive.
