How to look beyond your fears and do what you want to do - Tosin Kayode

Fear is such a great enemy. I am sure a lot of us have had countable number of experiences that Fear has messed up for us. Fear is so close to us every time, and all we have to do is just permit it.

Fear has no benefit to offer, it only condemns us before we get a chance to prove that we can go through what lies ahead of us. Fear brings about confusion, jittery, and at its peak is failure. Fear can make you lose concentration. It tears down your wall of confidence and accommodates anxiety.

Fear can come up when we are at the brink of doing great exploits and showing to the world that we can make things happen.  Fear is often times associated with failure because it would have made our preparation futile by the loss of concentration and we end up doing things the wrong way.

So many people have given up on Life out of Fear, they have resigned to fate when they actually have the power to go for much more than they have. In whatever way or manner that it comes to us, it is an Enemy. Fear wraps round our opportunities and makes them appear impossible to achieve.

I recall some of my chances that got messed up because I had fear; the outcomes were woeful. The only kind of fear I found worth having is the fear of God because it restrains you from going the wrong way.  The fear of the future should not deprive us of the joy of the present, there are lots of things that we can change if we try going after what we desire.  Some have passion and opportunities for going into good businesses but they have remained daunted by the fear of losing or failing.

Fear is part of life, but we need to learn how to handle it. For some, it may be necessary to push them forward; for some others it is a very bad mix. The good thing is that we can overcome our fears. That’s why we need to recognize them and then summon the courage to fight them. Fear can bring denial; we need to break the cords of fear over our endeavours.  What then can you do to overcome fear? What happens when your fears play out in reality?

Maintain an attitude of confidence always, Be determined to Win, never be anxious, keep your eye on the goal.  Embrace Hope and focus on success,  activate your strong points and understand that no one else can run the race ahead for you, imagine the worst case scenario and be motivated to avoid it. Understand that what confronts you is only a scene from life's drama and surely has an end.

When your Fear plays out in reality, be determined not to allow it overwhelm and drain you, get the good in it and forge ahead, make it a battle to be won!

Look beyond your Fears and do what you want to do!
