The #1 thing that holds many back from going after their dreams is FEAR.

It can keep us locked up inside our own mental prison. #fightyourfears

– Thread -🧵

Confronting those fears isn’t easy and is going to be uncomfortable.

While it may keep us comfortable, fear can also cause frustration and depression.

If you truly want to live your best life, you need to stop letting fear rule it.

Here, we will explore how you can stop letting fear control your life.

Explore the cause of your fear

To get over your fear, you are going to need to know its cause.

Write down all your fears, circling the most intense.

Having identified your main fears, start to think of ways you can prevent them from happening.

This can help you to feel like you have more control over them.

You won’t always be able to prevent your fears from coming true.

However, most of our fear is simply a defence mechanism.

By facing our fears, we often find it wasn’t as bad as we thought it would be.

With an idea of what is causing your fear, you can look at ways to combat it.

Practice mindfulness

Fear tends to generate a lot of anxiety.

By practising mindfulness, it can help to bring a sense of calm into the mind.

Lowering your anxiety levels will in turn give your fear less control over you.

In a calmer state, you will feel stronger and better able to face your fear.

Meditation and deep breathing exercises are great for calming anxiety.

They also deliver a lot of other great benefits for the mind and body.

Start with short, guided meditations if you are a beginner.

You can find them for free on sites such as YouTube.

Focus on the consequences if you don’t change

If you are struggling to face your fears, focus on what will happen if you don’t make the needed changes.

i.e. How will your life be a year from now if you don’t change anything now?

Likely, still be stuck feeling dissatisfied with your life, unable to move forward.

Conclusion

Only by recognizing and facing up to your fears can you truly get past them.

Self-improvement and confidence boosting, can help us face our fears.
