Solution # 8 – LIVE YOUR CORE VALUES
Fear comes when you are not living your core values (core beliefs). Most courageous people are very authentic and they live their core values. Who comes to your mind when you have to think about a courageous leader? There are many of course. For me, Mahatma Gandhi comes to my mind. All his strength he got by living his core values to the most. When you live your core values nothing can scare you and not even death. Read about any of the world top leaders and you will understand this very well. Nature has inserted a very beautiful mechanism with in us to tell us if we are living our values or not. When you comprise on your values your internal system will tell you and that why you will be unhappy when you are not living your values. When you are in sync with values you will be the happiest and courageous person.
Solution # 9 – BE YOURSELF
“Be yourself” is a common thing you would hear now a day. What does this really mean? Being yourself is about knowing yourself ( likes, dislikes, emotions, values, strengths, etc) and living as who you are. How this will help conquering fear? Similar to the core values deviation when you are not living as you are then the fear arises. The more you live out of sync then more fear will come. There by you lose your inner strength. Never try to be some one else and it will make you very weak. Over the period your environment and people around you would have tried their best to make you as some one else. Come out of it even it is very late in your life !!.
Solution # 10 – FACE ONE FEAR EVERY DAY
This is my favorite one. This does not necessarily a big fear kind of activity, it can be anything that your mind is resisting and you are not comfortable doing it. Most of often these kind of tasks what would produce most value in your day. This exercise will make you very strong and make you very comfortable with uncomfortable things. Do this exercise for 30 days to inculcate this as habit. You will see how stronger you become on daily basis.
