Motivation- Overcome those irrational fears

in #motivation6 years ago

The funny thing about irrational fear is that we are not acute when looking at them. They make us feel weak, incompetent, incapable or daft, simply because we're unable to do the things everyone else can. This gives us the fear power

Why bother to fight the fear?

It would be so awesome if we could ensure we live our life in way that you don’t have to deal with your fear?

I know a friend of mine who has inferiority complex for years now, and are now at the height of their profession, what are they going to do now? Quit?

Fixing these fears aren't really a big job, but only about 50% will appreciate the benefits of fighting this fear.

If you truly want to stop a habit that you have been practicing, something that has become part of you for years, it's going to be tough to believe change will work.

First things first, ask yourself the big question why, and after that take a flashback though your life and remember all the occasions that this fear was present. As for me, i can still remember back in primary school where i was selected to make a speech on our end of the year party. Were parents, friends, friends of friends and everyone were present, i was shivering and my voice was shaky, although i managed to make the speech but i did suffer some errors while speaking. I could also remember when i was a kid, i had this inferiority complex each time i want to approach a girl.

It was so painful and unpleasant each time i remember those days, i could feel my heart racing, my breath changing and my shoulders drawing up. The truth is, that fear is causing a physical change in your body, doesn't it feel good?

Each time we challenge and eradicate this fear, it can't have power over us. So therefore, never allow this fear to overwhelm your enter being, lifetime opportunities could be lost if we do not first of all deal with this fear.

Some proactive steps below might help in eradicating this fear;

  • New hobbies: Apart from your daily routine or your daily task, setting out a new hobby could erase the irrational fear from your mind. Probably you love spending time alone with your thoughts, or you love walking alone. Switch that lifestyle by hanging out with friends, going to the cinema to see movies when you're bored, do things that will kill those fear.

  • New travels: Yes we must have seen beautiful pictures of some developed countries on the internet. But the question is, have you ever thought of visiting those countries or at least spend a week or 2 vacation there? Travelling out to a new and beautiful country erase those hidden fears from us. We get to see new things and meet new people that can change our thinking faculty. And by so doing, we forget about the fears that have been troubling us.

  • Confident: You as a person, you've never made a speech in public before, nor organized a meeting with a group of people before. The good news is you can still doing, we only get better when we keep doing those things that we taught were impossible.

So therefore, brace up and challenge hose situation that has kept you in the dark for quite a long time. And am very sure you'd be glad you challenged those situations at the end of the day.

Fear a denial of opportunity but I can relate to the examples cited be you - I went through them too. Thanks for the motivation

Most welcome my bro, thanks for stopping by.

Nice one, I agree, especially the part of substituting new hobbies for old ones. It's one of the best ways, because the void has to be filled with something else when trying to get rid of a habit, if not, it won't work out.

Hmmmm, yes yes....

Whatever you are afraid to confront, you will be unable to conquer. Stand up and face your fear..
