Fear

“The only thing we have to fear is fear itself”- FDR at his inauguation almost 4 years into the great depression.

We’re not dealing with a great depression now, but we are in unsettled times, which has caused a lot of people to feel fearful.

In this piece we’ll discuss fear, and how you can gain control over your fears.

Fear is not something to overcome. Instead it’s a feeling that should help you take some form of action.

As a case preparation investigator for over 30 years I conducted withness interviews in some pretty scary places. And I had to learn how to address fear in order to be able to move forward so that I could perform my work.

It’s my hope that this discussion will help you to move forward when you feel fear. And taking action. Whatever that may be, is the best way to move forward.

Fear causes a primordal gut instinct response, and we should never ignore our gut instinct. Rationalizing is what gets us in trouble. Here’s what to do instead.

  •  Listen to fear when it arises. Take ownership of it.
  •  Look at it from all angles.
  •  Ask yourself is there something specific making you feel fearful, or is it just a general sense.
  •  Ask yourself is the fear you feel a reasonable response for your situation.
  •  Don’t dismiss fear. Instead adjust how you perceive it so that it actually matches your current situation.
  •  The key is to address the fear you’re feeling directly. Fear that overwhelms you prevents you from thinking quickly and effectively.
