The DUMBEST of DUMBESTER emotion is?

Fear.

My goodness is fear dumb.

I am not calling YOU dumb for being fearful, but I am calling the emotion dumb.

It is so crippling and full of nasty worms, isnt it?

Its like a virus that spreads to EVERY part of your being - emotionally AND physically. It is SO DUMB! I hate it!

FORTUNATELY - though it is felt by many - it isn't real. Fear is NOT real. Its a perception or a mental notion that we make in our minds. Your mind permits you to experience fear. Sometimes fear happens just out of ignorance. Ever fear of something because of misinformation? What happened when you learned the whole truth about the situation?

You laughed about it and felt relieved didnt you?

So how do you conquer the lie of fear?

Simple

KNOW

Know yourself

Know the circumstances before making irrational judgments (that could be asking a lot, too, I know!)

Know what is in your control

Know what is NOT in your control

Instead of letting fear happen, ANALYZE the situation in your mind first. Know the truth of the matter FIRST.

Stepping back out of yourself for a minute will give yourself the much needed break before permitting fear to run its course and cripple you to your core.

What do you fear?
