Our Minds are Millions of Years Old with a Built-In Survival Mechanism...Why Is This Important??
Our Minds and the Survival Mechanism We All Have
Are minds have built in programming from the genes of all the ancestors though out life. We all have the same built in mechanism though because back hundreds and even thousands of years, the only thought was survival.
Mind
It does not have your best intentions for what you truly want in any circumstance. It will always look for what's wrong in all situations. This is why your scared to move forward with almost anything! Even the smallest jumps in life, such as going up to talk to somebody.
Be Aware
You must become really aware of this to prevent and avoid it. Then you create patterns that will keep you on track with your daily and long term goals. Train yourself to have the patterns and daily achivements you want. Stick to your plan and don't let fear dictate your outcomes.
Fear
Know that when you procrastinate or have fear/anxiety feelings creep up, that is your mind "trying" to protect you, telling you to back off and get to a safer space. This will happen with any situation, something as simple as telling someone how great they are. It could be for absolutely anything.
Conscious Thinking
To defeat this undermining mechanism(in everyday life, it is great when you actually have to survive) we must use conscious thinking and know when we should listen to this or not. Use your mind with the correct data/info to stay on your path, keep a trained mind, know what you are going to do and stick to it!
Do not use your emotional feelings to make decisions. This can let emotions run wild and make all your decisions for you.
