Fear is a killer. It can kill your dreams if you let it. It can cripple your legs if you let it. Fear is there, but do not let it stop your growth. Because if you are not growing, then you are living your fears. Do not live in fear, but in love. Live in love, not fear. Live in love, not doubt. Live in the present, not in the past. Don’t fear. We all have it. You are not alone. And we will win together. According to George S. Patton, “Everybody’s afraid, but to do your job in combat you have to put your fear down. If you’re not afraid in combat, you’re either a fool or a liar.”

“Guilt is the result of fear …”- Benjamin Creme

As I said before, we all have it. It is not a weakness. It is a strength. It is a strength only if you know what to do with it. But if you don’t know what to do with your fear, if you don’t know how to handle it, if you don’t know how to play with it, if you don’t know how to make it your best friend, then it becomes a problem.

Fear can paralyze you if you let it. Don’t let it. You are more powerful than you think. You can do more than you think. Do not let fear destroy you. Face it. Use it to grow. Use it to make yourself a masterpiece. And removing fear from your life is not going to happen overnight. You must be patient with yourself.

You can remove fear from your life. Yes, you can do it. All you have to do is to believe in yourself. Whether you enjoy hearing it or not, everything, everything, starts with you. Because you are responsible for your life.

To remove fear from your life, according to Benjamin Creme, “The way to remove fear and guilt is to … instill, acquire, build into yourself honesty of mind, sincerity of spirit, and detachment. If done assiduously, correctly, these inevitably build the detachment in which fear and guilt disappear.” If you can face your fears, you can live your life. Let’s do it!

How To Face Adversity

Friedrich Nietzsche famously said, “That which does not kill us makes us stronger.” Life is not supposed to be without adversity. When you face adversity, when things are not working out for you, when you are struggling to make things happen, do not get frustrated. Remain calm. Focus on what you are doing. Focus on what is going well for you. Do not let temporary difficulties stop you from doing your best work.

Henry Thomas Hamblin said, “It is not possible to have an easy life and, if it were possible, then life would not be worth living, for the sole object of life is the building of character and the attainment of wisdom through experience.”

Adversity advances us. It takes us from where we are to where we want to be. We grow when we overcome obstacles. We grow when we overcome adversity. We grow when we face our fears. We grow when we stretch our muscles.

And if we want to go somewhere, we must face obstacles. We must do what we don’t want to do. We must get out of our comfort zone. Because there is no growth in the comfort zone. It is just that- comfort zone.

When you face difficulties, do not run away from them. Explore what they have in store for you. Explore what you can learn from them. Explore how you can use them to change your life. Explore how you can use them to improve yourself. Without self improvement, you cannot change your situation. To improve yourself is to improve your life. And to improve your life is to live, to achieve greatness.

Do not worry about failure. Worry about improving yourself, your life. And you can’t do that if you are not willing to swim with adversity, if you are not willing to get your hands dirty.

Get your hands dirty. Life will always get your hands dirty. How you choose to handle it is your choice. Because life is all about making choices. So if you want to face adversity, you must be willing to get your hands dirty.
