We all have fear in our lives- fear of the unknown, of rejection, of disappointment, but one thing is for sure, fear stops you from growing. Here is how it’s done. Fear persuades you to set easier goals and do less than you’re capable of doing. Fear triggers internal defense systems and fools you into thinking you have a perfectly good reason not to change. Fear causes you to be afraid to fail or to become disappointed. Fear – particularly of making mistakes causes confusion. It stops you from knowing what you really want. Fear warps your perception of your life and what you can do to make it better. Fear keeps you from asking for help when you need it most. Fear keeps you from asserting yourself and persuades you to settle for something you feel you must settle for, instead of going after something you truly want. Fear keeps you from taking new risks, To calm your fears, you develop unhealthy habits and behaviors. Fear is real, but faith is too. Faith keeps you growing and gaining knowledge. So, the next time you’re stuck at fork, chose faith over fear, it will lead you to a much better destination.
