Finding And Overcoming The Source Of Your Fears With The Help Of
God
A sure way to overcoming your fears and anxieties is in finding
the source of your fears and being able to manage it with the
help of God. In dealing with any kinds of fears or anxieties,
try to learn what is the real source of your fears and
anxieties. Knowing what is causing your anxieties can go a long
way in finding the solution.
A person should first ask God for some help and assistance.
Prayer can be very effective in having God lead you in the right
direction.
Next, a person can find the source of his or her own fears by
doing some self evaluation and also by talking to a
professional. Asking yourself questions such as: "Why am I
afraid" or "What is causing my anxiety" will lead you in the
right direction in finding the source of your fears. Give it
some time and eventually you will find the answers your looking
for.
Once you find the true source of your fears, the next step is to
find the solutions that will solve your problem. With the help
of a professional, write down a list of possible techniques and
solutions that you think will manage your fear and anxieties.
The next step is to apply the techniques that you uncovered.
Here is a brief list of some techniques you can use to help deal
with your fears.
A good way to manage your worry is to challenge your negative
thinking with positive statements and realistic thinking. When
encountering thoughts that make your fearful or anxious,
challenge those thoughts by asking yourself questions that will
maintain objectivity and common sense.
When facing a current or upcoming task that overwhelms you with
a lot of anxiety, the first thing you can do is to break the
task into a series of smaller steps. Completing these smaller
tasks one at a time will make the stress more manageable and
increases your chances of success.
Sometimes we encounter a scary situation that gets us all upset.
When encountering these events, always remember to get all of
the facts of the given situation. Gathering the facts can
prevent us from relying on exaggerated and fearful assumptions.
By focusing on the facts, a person can rely on what is reality
and what is not.
Many people try to get rid of their anxieties and fears without
taking into consideration why they are afraid. As a layman, I
learned that the best way to get rid of your fears is to find
those techniques that will manage the true source of your fears.
If you can do this, then you should be able to overcome your
fears and anxieties.
