Top Tips to Embrace Fear and Create Change

If you feel a bit of fear when going for your goals and dreams, you’re not alone. It’s normal to feel some uneasiness as you grow and change. Putting yourself out there and being bold, courageous, and confident can feel like a stretch. However, if you create a plan for simple action steps, you will find new possibilities open up for you. Fear of the unknown is one of the most common fears, so it’s a good idea to remember that change is valuable even if it feels uncomfortable.

Don’t let fear paralyze you and stop you from your dreams. Fear lessens when you face it head-on. Sometimes fear can hold you back, making you think that success isn’t possible. If you sense this is happening, don’t stop and give up on your dreams. Instead, choose to step towards your fear and embrace the change.

“Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear.” ~Mark Twain

Success is a state of mind that you can achieve with time, patience, and determination. Being uncomfortable is healthy because it lets you know that you’re moving out of your comfort zone. Learn to expect some discomfort to move beyond your current situation.

You create change by moving forward one step at a time.

Procrastination, resistance, avoidance, and excuses will hold back your growth. Overcome these by seeing yourself successfully meeting challenges. Small action steps will help you push beyond your comfort zone.

You change when you want. Use these simple practices to overcome fear and make changes.

Top Tips to Embrace Fear and Create Change

1. Decide you are going to accept change.
2. Be patient with yourself. Do the best you can. Be your best friend.
3. Choose love over fear. Where there is love, you feel peace,
4. Feel the fear and do it anyway. Celebrate each of your successes along the way.
5. Stop saying you can’t. Your self-talk matters. Start to believe you can.
6. To achieve what you want, learn to relax. Relaxing works better than pushing yourself too hard.
7. Shift your mindset. Focus on positive thoughts that will create good feelings and raise your energy. Think about the areas where you have excelled in the past. This is a reminder that you can succeed.
8. Take responsibility for expanding your growth. The more you know, the less you fear.

Be positive in your self-talk and attitude. Thoughts are powerful. Don’t let fear overtake your thoughts. If you procrastinate and obsess, fear has the time to paralyze your abilities and efforts. Silence the inner critic by thinking about what you want and not focusing on fear and doubt. Action steps enable real change to occur. If you don’t take action, your dreams remain in your imagination instead of becoming your reality.

Learn to embrace your fear and feel more peaceful now so you can enjoy the opportunities that are waiting for you. Begin the process of change right where you are now. You can handle whatever happens, so commit to courageously moving toward your goals. Move through your fear, don’t run from it, and know that when fear appears, growth is on its way.
