Fear as a Catalyst for Change
A lot of people have lived with fear for so long they don't even realize they're living with it. And nothing compromises you more than the fear you've grown accustomed to.
Fear comes in many shapes and forms … anxiety, worry, frustration, anger, regret, resentment, the list goes on. Bottom line though, Fear is a ‘Possibility Stealer’. No-one is exempt from it, although some have got better at dealing with it.
For some of us fear entwines itself into our thoughts every time we decide to make a change. In that moment of decision, a trail of thoughts and feelings is ignited and weaves its way into minds … our baggage from the past … so that you can end up feeling that ‘Well … maybe this isn’t the best time …’ or other action hindering conclusions.
But what's at the bottom of it?
And what can you do moment by moment to release it?
Because let’s face it some people have developed efficient means of overcoming fear and because some people have that means you can too.

Attention and Awareness are the keys. Fear takes over your mind when you take your attention and awareness off how you’re feeling and lose yourself in your thoughts. One thought leads to another, then another and before you know it … there’s a ‘reason’ or an ‘excuse’ to stop doing what you’re doing.
Fear comes as those ‘rational’ thoughts which ‘make sense’ or confusion and inability to make a decision or worry, anxiety, regret, resentment, frustration or anger to name a few. It’s those nebulous thoughts which leave you feeling deflated and out of sorts.
The key to using fear as a catalyst are Attention and Awareness to what you’re thinking and how you’re feeling. The very moment you notice yourself feeling ‘stressed’ or out of sorts, is the very moment you need to reclaim your Attention and Awareness rather than consenting to go along with it.
And you can do this easily by maintaining your Awareness and Attention and changing the questions you ask yourself. Start your mind searching for the ‘reasons’ why you can be do and have all the awesome, beautiful, wonderful things you truly deserve in this life. Love life and live it creatively.
