Facing Fear



"Everything you have ever wanted, is sitting on the other side of fear."

Fear keeps us in the background. It convinces us we can never accomplish our dreams, tells us to keep quiet, and separates us from the ones we love. Fear has an unparalleled ability to freeze us in our tracks, and limit what we are willing to try. Fear makes us lead a smaller life.


  • The things that we are afraid of may be different, but our reactions to fear are usually the same – our palms sweat, our mouths get dry, our stomachs churn — and we would do anything, make any sacrifice, just to make it go away. How many times have you turned away from an opportunity or even a relationship because you were too afraid to go for it?

Fear is not a bad thing. It exists for our protection as an early warning signal. But there is a big difference between the healthy fear that tells us to step away from the edge of a cliff and a constant fear that keeps us from living our life.



All fears, no matter how big or small, are worse when we face them alone. Find a good friend to share your fears with. We tend to resist admitting our fears because we are afraid that the person will think less of us, that they will laugh, or make things worse. Find someone you can trust, possibly a counselor, maybe a relative or trusted friend and share what’s bothering you. They may be able to help you see what you’re afraid of in a new light, and they will be there to stand by you and encourage you as you take steps to face your fears.

  • In times of crisis, spiritual truths that are consistent in any circumstances are a great comfort. They give us safety and familiarity and, more importantly, they give us a reason to hope. If you do not have a spiritual life or faith consider talking to a pastor or read the Bible. The book of Psalms in particular speaks to people that are facing difficulties.

In a nut shell, let me leave you with a line to ponder.
You probably may have came across it somewhere,
'fear, is a total waste of time. All it does is steal your joy and keep you busy doing nothing.'

Learn to be more human again.

#hwtujuibado 👋 | Hello everyone .   My hopes.... life's treating you just the same way you treat it. My eyes are on social media today... and with this 'short' article,  I hope to open your eyes too on some  impeccable reality about it.  | We think we need all those text messages, social updates, memes, and perfect Instagram pics ! If it entertains you now but will hurt or bore you someday, it’s a distraction.  Don’t settle.    Don’t exchange what you want most for what you kind of want at the moment.   Study your habits.  Figure out where your time goes, and remove distractions.  It’s time to focus on what matters. A good place to start? Learn to be more human again.   Don’t avoid eye contact.  Don’t hide behind gadgets.  Smile often.  Ask about people’s stories.  Listen.  You can’t connect with anyone, including yourself, unless you are undistracted and present.  And yo...

Compromise.

#hwtujuibado If you cannot get what you love out of this life, then learn to love and cherish the things that have been handed to you, because they are there and they are yours, don't chase the impossible, if you can't be who you want to be in life then learn to be the things you're not, and if you can't get what you need from life then learn to need the things that stop you from dreaming, but by all means necessary keep moving on, and should the universe turn its back on you then do the same, don't let the universe get the best of you, just COMPROMISE. Our goal this year, after many years now, is to turn setbacks into comebacks, journey with Me as we re write our fates.
