Using the Power of Your Fear
That fear you feel before doing something new or different can seem overwhelming at times, in fact it stops some people dead in their tracks. However it affects you, experiencing emotional distress from fear is painful and actually physically damaging. Did you know that the fear mechanism is only designed to be for a very brief period, but when we allow ourselves to remain in a fear mode for and extended time our body is actually getting damaged? So if you want to move your life forward and keep your health managing these fears is advisable. Your personal growth is an ongoing process and part of self-discovery is finding what about your life you don't want and then to making the small changes to support what you do want.
In acting they teach actors and actresses to channel their fear. It's not that that many don't have it, but it's how they have learned to handle it. Many who perform live or speak in from of large groups are nervous every time before they do. But rather than letting this stop them they are able to channel the energy in the fear towards what they are doing. This actually transfers that heightened energy you notice with fear thoughts into their performance or presentation. Have you ever noticed that some performers seem to have a different 'personality' off stage than they do when they are performing? Many are quiet and reserved when talked to away from a performance, but when on stage they come alive with energy and boldness. I wonder where that comes from - re-directed fear perhaps.
Everyone has the ability to do this, to transfer that energy attached to fear thoughts onto something else, like what it is you want to do but feel afraid to. It's really a matter of perspective, yes, how you look at something and how you interpret it determines what you will do with it. Have you noticed how that when you have chosen to do something you feared you did it with a higher energy level than you normally operate with? This is that energy re-directed to something of your choice, which better supports what you want.
In fact sometimes your energy is so high, in a calm way that you are 'in the zone' able to do what you are doing without much conscious thought. This is how powerful it can be to channel your fear associated energy onto the task at hand particularly if you are prepared to do it. As you may have found, even being prepared for something still does not prevent you from feeling fearful about actually doing it, but preparation does make it flow better once you get yourself to go.
Choose not to allow your fears to slow or prevent your progression in life, choose to change the way you look at them so your personal dreams can be expressed fully. When you feel fear, choose to let it be and proceed as planned, and channel the fear energy into your planned actions to enhance your performance. As you do this, like with anything, over time it will get easier and easier. You will be actually re-training your unconscious thought patterns to automatically behave differently, to do it the way you want it done. Dropping the emotional reaction to logical thoughts can allow you to address them and move on. Once you have checked your hair, it's good - stop dwelling about it.
Remember that you have command of your thinking not the other way around. It may seem that your thoughts and feelings run the show, but this is because of all the default programming that was established as you were developing, unknown to you at the time. At the time you did not know any better or different so as to guide this development differently. But now you know you can change your perceptions of everything in your life, you can alter how you interpret everything that you see, and you can adjust your reactions to these as well, which in turn changes your behavior. Choose what best supports the life you want, what you want to do and how you want to feel.
Choose to adjust what is keeping you from the life you desire, personal growth and development is a daily activity.
