Attract Abundance

Fear can be very crippling and when coping with crippling fear, there are times NOT to trust your thoughts.

Trusting your inner instincts is an important skill to learn, although there are times when your mind can play tricks on you. When your body and mind are under stress, it may be difficult to see the difference between good thoughts and those that arise from fear.

Dealing With Fear

No one enjoys dealing with fear; however, it’s a necessary part of a fulfilled life. The best line of defense is to practice remaining calm and ask for help when you need it. After all, two minds striving for a rational solution is usually better than one.

When Not To Trust Your Thoughts

Even in difficult circumstances, you probably have an idea about what is truly right or wrong. However, it’s a good idea to try to recognize the situations where you tend to have trouble thinking clearly. That way, when these situations do come up, you can start working on solutions, instead of giving into the cloudy thoughts.

You probably shouldn’t trust your thoughts in the following situations:

1. When you’re under stress. People often don’t recognize how detrimental stress can be to the mind and body. Stress can cause you to make unwise decisions and think too quickly. Stress can take over your body and produce hormones that alter your thinking patterns.
2. When you’re feeling anxious. There are varying degrees of anxiety that can affect anyone at any time. When it takes over in a strong manner, such as when you’re dealing with crippling fear, it can lead to erratic, irrational thoughts or even panic.
3. When you’re having negative thoughts. Sometimes you’ll have a bad day or even a bad week. Having a tough time can cause a negative thinking pattern that can cause you to think unreasonable or even absurd thoughts. You may start to have angry or depressing thoughts that can’t be trusted.

When you’re having thoughts that seem real, but are rather unreasonable, remember that it’s not coming from you. Rather, it’s coming from the build up and repression of years of self-doubt, negativity, stress, anxiety, or even past circumstances. That’s precisely why you cannot trust those thoughts!

Dealing With Your Feelings

You now know that negative thought patterns can arise from stress, anxiety, fear or even the past. Crippling fear, unfortunately, hurls many strongly negative feelings your way. But it’s how you deal with them and proceed with your thought patterns that make all the difference. Strive to take time to cool down and relax your mind before making important decisions.

One way to know if something is your true feeling is to wait a few days before making a decision. For example, if after a week of thinking something over, you still think the same way, then it’s probably true. Of course, you first have to ensure that your mind isn’t under attack from stress, anxiety, negativity, or fear.

Healing From Fear

If you find that you’re frequently in fearful situations, you can concentrate on healing those feelings. When your mind begins to race, take in a large dose of oxygen. Believe it or not, deep breathing is a signal for your mind to relax and think clearly. So breathe deeply and breathe often!

Also remember that you’re not alone. You have people who can help you and you shouldn’t feel shy to ask for that help. If you feel uncomfortable talking with a family member or friend, consider the help of a coach or counselor.

Just remember to avoid taking drastic actions that arise from fear. Take your time when making decisions, breathe deeply, and seek the help you need to overcome the grips of fear.

• 9 Ways To Conquer Your Fear Of Change And Live A Better Future (2)
• 3 Key Ideas For Overcoming Your Fears And Attracting Prosperity (1)

Do you find yourself feeling afraid, anxious, and overwhelmed by the prospect of change in your life? If so, this is entirely normal — particularly in today’s world with its ever increasing pace of change. In this article, you will discover 9 simple ways to conquer your fear of change and begin to live a better future.

Change can be a scary thing. When you make a change in your life, you bring yourself into the unknown. You travel from a safe place to one where you don’t know exactly what will happen.

The truth is, there is nothing you can do to stop change. This world is always changing — sometimes for good and sometimes not. The best thing you can do for yourself is to learn the best ways to adapt to change. Once you do that, you’ll soon learn that there’s no reason to fear.

Here is a list of 9 simple strategies you can use to conquer your fear of change:

1. Think Positive Thoughts. When you embark on a change in your life, think it through in a positive way. Instead of thinking about what could go wrong, picture it all going right. This may sound trivial, but the truth is it does wonders for your vibration and how you feel. And as you likely already know, by law of attraction, the higher your level of positive vibration the more positive results you attract.
2. Learning Life Lessons. Think about some of the past changes you’ve gone through in your life and include both the positive outcomes and the negative ones. Regardless of your past, it’s likely that you’ve learned an important life lesson. Yet, if you keep your life stagnant, you’ll lose out on the many important life lessons and experiences.
3. Write Your Thoughts Down. Writing down your innermost thoughts can provide a similar release as confiding with a close friend. Change can be scary, but if you provide yourself with a way to conquer the fear, you can find the courage underneath. This is where the technique of journaling can be so very powerful.
4. Try Hypnosis. Hypnosis and self-hypnosis techniques have been known to help when we need to alter our thinking. Hypnosis can help you relax by feeding you transformative thoughts.
5. Positive Motivation. If you want to get over your fear of change, you have to actually want the change. If you do, you’ll do whatever it takes to get motivated. You can do this by reciting affirmations, writing directions down for yourself, or asking a trusted friend or family member for help.
6. Stay in the Present. Staying in the present moment can help you conquer any fear. It’s far too easy for your mind to get caught up with regrets about the past or worries about the future. In moments of self-doubt, focus only on whatever you’re doing at the moment. This moment is all you have, so you might as well enjoy it.
7. Break Down the Change. If you’re planning a big change in your life, perhaps it will help to break down the change into a series of smaller steps. Doing so will help you to feel less overwhelmed if you can easily transition into a change instead of feeling shocked and scared.
8. The Right Time. Remember that it’s always the right time to change. Don’t make excuses for yourself. Believe that you can do it and go for it. As the saying goes, in order for something to change, something has to change.
9. Plan Your Course. When you embark on a path of change, it may be the unknown that scares you most. If possible, carefully plan through your change. Think about all the possible scenarios and outcomes — positive or negative — then make a plan for the course you intend to follow. When you have a plan, you’ll ease your fears of the unknown and feel at least a little more comfortable with the change. And you’ll have a clear view of where you are going.

Change for the Better

Change is going to find you one way or another, so you might as well learn how to go with the flow and learn how to let go. Sure, this is easier said than done, however, learning how to better adapt to change can improve all aspects of your life.

Are you allowing your fears to prevent you from manifesting your dreams of prosperity and a better life?

At the same time, you have advertisers promoting to you non-stop attempting to sell you products designed to protect you from the unfortunate outcomes or accidents that may befall you. This of course feeds the fear even more, meaning there’s more demand for the anti-fear gurus.

Fear Is Not Real

For the most part, fear is all in your head. Ninety nine percent of the things you fear never end up happening.

Fear is generally focused on a future outcome you anticipate or imagine. The outcome is something you do not want and you’re predisposed to believing it’s the only possible outcome as you move forward.

Perhaps the most insidious aspect of fear is that it often leads you to freeze … to do nothing because there’s the possibility it will all turn out bad. In other words, we find ourselves playing not to get hurt rather than playing to win.

How can that lead to a fulfilling life of inspired abundance?

Fear Takes On Many Shapes

There are all kinds of fears. The fear of speaking in public is a big one — but its just a conversation. In martial arts, you learn to break boards with your hands and feet. Yet so many beginners are afraid they will break their hand.

Some time ago, I walked barefoot on fire and hot coals that were over 1200 degrees Fahrenheit. My mind told me I would get burned (or worse) — and in fact I had to sign a release acknowledging I could die. I didn’t get burned at all.

Financial fear is another big one. We’ve been so conditioned that few of us will ever break free of our financial fears. We worry about being able to provide for our families, send the kids to college, or retire with enough money to live. We’re inundated with offers of insurance and commercials focusing on the minefield of risks before us. We are so concerned about losing money that we end up not participating in opportunities when they come along. We presuppose the outcome and so don’t even try.

Why Not Presuppose Your Dreams Instead?

At what point was it when you began to choose to put more faith in your fears than in your dreams?

Dreams are simply the opposite side of the coin from fear. They also represent an anticipated or imagined outcome. Why is the dream less likely to occur than the outcome we fear? The truth is that it isn’t less likely. By putting more focus and attention on pursuing your dreams, you may well end up conquering your fears.

However, you do tend to get what you focus on and what you believe. So perhaps its time to invest a little more energy in focusing upon and believing in what is possible — that dreams do come true if you persist with faith and belief in yourself.
