Chapter Five A Positive Response to Fear Fear does not only have to be defined as a distressing emotion aroused by impending danger, evil, pain, etc., whether the threat is real or imagined; the feeling or condition of being afraid (www.dictionary.reference.com). Fear can also have a positive effect on people. If received and harnessed the right way, fear can be a motivator. I am going to give you some examples. As a single parent, the fear of not being able to provide for your children and yourself can motivate you to find a job, work hard and work longer hours to eventually help you get promoted so you can provide for your family. As the breadwinner, you may be in an all commission-based business that gives you no guarantee of a paycheck each week. Thus, for the fear of not getting paid, you are motivated to learn your trade and be the best sales consultant you can be, in order to close as many sales and earn as much commission as you can. I have heard of people who have been in life-or-death situations use the fear of actually dying to motivate, strengthen and empower them to do whatever it takes to get themselves and anyone else involved out alive and to safety. Believe it or not, if channeled properly, fear can be used to strengthen you, help you break through addictions, turn you away from a life headed towards destruction, empower you to leave bad habits behind and focus your efforts to obtain a specific goal. When fear comes, if you have to accept it, channel it properly for your benefit and productivity for a positive result! |
