Overcoming fear
People are usually afraid of negative things. We all encounter self doubt and are fearful of making mistakes. We are even afraid of self-improvement because of this fear.
The best way to remove this fear is to understand that life is always in the cycle of ups and downs. No one is permanently up or permanently down. No one can avoid these ups and downs including the most envied of Hollywood stars. Even Jesus’ disciples had fear. They ran away when the chips were down but they changed. How and why?
What we should do about all the downs in our lives is to learn from them and not to avoid them. We should learn how to handle our problems for our psychological self-improvement.
Most of us tend to think of fear as a negative, as something to be avoided. But fear can have powerfully positive effects as well. The emotion is evolution’s way of keeping us safe in the face of danger. When awakened, it can unleash abilities we never knew we had, unlocking reserves that are otherwise hidden. Fear pulls out the stops, it turns the dial.
Problems affect us every day. These problems bring us misery due to the fact that we have feelings. We should never lose hope in figuring out solutions to these problems. All we need is to learn how to overcome them and not to be overcome.
Problems may never be completely overcome but we can learn from all of them. This is where psychology plays an important role.
Psychologists say that we should always be careful in our decisions concerning our problems. We should handle our problems properly and learn how to deal with them. Learning from mistakes helps us in preparing ourselves for our own psychological self-improvement
There are a lot of myths about every event in our lives is due to pre-determined reason. Another belief says that what we encounter in our lives today is our preparation for other things that may come in our lives. To understand what may happen to us in the future, we must learn from the present. With all that, it is also true that the unexpected can happen anytime. However, you should keep in mind that a psychological self-improvement is not always for the worse and consequently, you must never let go of a chance, because you are afraid to take the risk.
Remember that, from time to time, something has to happen in order to free you from monotony, so you shouldn’t be surprised if, at a certain moment in time, instead of being afraid of change, you desire it with all your heart.
Figuring out how to maximise performance in the face of fear and other forms of stress is another area you should think about. Understanding fear’s secret super powers can help you gain the upper hand when the chips are down.
If there are some things that hinder you from going on, here are some tips to help you move forward:
Just think of the positive impacts results from the psychological self-improvement. Know important they are and reflect on how to increase them, by adding some other good aspects, which need certain assistance.
Try to picture somebody else in your situation, as picturing ourselves in a less desirable position, always looks more dramatic than it really is. If you realize that the other person can handle the change, you can be sure you’ll be able to handle it as well. This is a good psychological self-improvement.
Think of the worst situation that can result after the self-improvement. Try to find various solutions to it. Reflect on how much you can loose, if the worst happened, and how important those things are to you. If you find more than one reasonable solution, you are safe and the self-improvement can’t be stronger than you are!
Self-improvement is not bad at all. All we need is to learn how to handle some negative changes. We should also reflect from it to learn and use it in the future events that we may encounter. This could be your ultimate way to overcome every one of your fears. Perhaps the most ironic aspect of fear is that when it’s most intense, many people don’t feel it at all. There is a bright side to crisis. The experience could give you a rare opportunity to meet a part of your mind you otherwise would never encounter—and to find out just how powerful you really are. Powerful enough to overcome fear.
