Solution # 5 – LOVE IS THE ANTIDOTE FOR FEAR
Does this statement look like a cliché? What is opposite of Fear? It is not courage. It is love. If you have pure love or passion towards any thing then there is no room for fear. Let’s say some one comes and tells you that they are starting a new venture or new career then if you do not have same level of passion for it then your mind will come up with all kinds risks, problems, pains, etc.. Why it so? Because you do not love as much as other person is loving his/her pursuit. Start loving your pursuit and increase it gradually until you are really in love with it. But if you say it is difficult to build love when there is no love at all then it is not worth pursuing it.
Solution # 6 – LIVE FOR BIGGER CAUSE/PURPOSE
Have you seen any one talking about fears who are pursuing bigger dreams and purpose? Of course every one feels the fear unless the person is a psychopath or really elevated “yogi”. But the point is when you have a bigger cause (most often beyond your benefit) then fears can’t stop them. Why? Because the benefits of your purpose outweighs too much the fears you experience. That’s why great leader in field are not worried about fears. Their purpose is beyond fears and pains.
Solution # 7 – ELIMINATE ROOT BELIEF
Fears are driven fundamentally by a belief. In fact, each and every thing you experience in life is based on the beliefs you have built in consciously or unconsciously. You take any fear and go to the root of it then you can end up finding the root belief. When the outcome you are expecting deviates from the root belief then the fear arises. Let’s say you have the fear of failure. What is fear of failure for you? What is the belief you have on fear of failure? You may have belief like “when you fail others will laugh at you” or “you should never fail” or “failure means you not worthy enough”, etc. Question your beliefs deeply. Then you will realize that those disempowering beliefs are not serving you and eliminate those beliefs to remove fear.
