Get Rid Of Fear By Changing Your Thoughts

Did you realize that you create your own fear? You do this by
thinking about negative outcomes to whatever it is that you want to do.

If you can cause this feeling in yourself, it makes sense that you can also change it.

How can you do this?

You first need to accept that you are imagining failure before you have even attempted what you hope to
achieve. It is these thoughts that cause you to be scared.

If you stop to think about this, surely, if these feelings are created by imagination, then if you replace the negative thoughts with thoughts of a successful outcome, this will help lower your stress.

For example, you may be scared of flying, because you worry about the plane crashing on taking off or landing.

If
you can try and focus on something totally unrelated to the worries you
have as the plane is leaving or landing, this will take away the
nervousness you have, and help you stay calm and relaxed.

Remember, the way you think forms how you feel, so, you create your own fears.

When
you start to concentrate on things that might go wrong, or when you are
fearful about something, replace your thoughts with a positive, successful outcome.

Try thinking about a past event that you enjoyed to take your mind off your nervousness
