Face your fears to overcome them from "summary" of Master Your Mental Strength by Amy Morin
Facing your fears is a crucial step in the journey to overcoming them. It may seem counterintuitive to confront the very things that scare you, but avoidance only serves to strengthen your fears. When you face your fears head-on, you send a powerful message to your brain - you are not going to let fear control you.
Avoiding your fears may provide temporary relief, but in the long run, it only makes them stronger. Each time you avoid a fear, you reinforce the belief that it is too overwhelming to handle. This perpetuates a cycle of fear that becomes increasingly difficult to break. By facing your fears, you challenge these beliefs and prove to yourself that you are capable of handling whatever comes your way.
Facing your fears is not easy, and it may feel uncomfortable or even terrifying at times. However, it is through this discomfort that growth and change occur. When you confront your fears, you build resilience and develop the confidence to tackle whatever challenges life throws at you.
It is important to approach facing your fears with compassion and self-care. Be patient with yourself and acknowledge the courage it takes to confront what scares you. Remember that it is okay to feel afraid - bravery is not the absence of fear but the ability to act in spite of it.
As you face your fears, be sure to celebrate your victories, no matter how small they may seem. Each time you confront a fear, you chip away at its power over you. With each step forward, you become stronger and more resilient.
Facing your fears is a process that takes time and effort, but the rewards are well worth it. As you confront your fears and push past your comfort zone, you will discover a newfound sense of empowerment and freedom. Embrace the challenge, and trust in your ability to overcome whatever obstacles stand in your way.
