Day 1 - I Release Fear

1/1/20251 min read

Let me first say that, fear is not bad. Fear is actually extremely useful. Fear is trying to protect us, to prevent us from getting hurt. If we didn’t feel fear, we’d hurt ourselves a LOT more than we do.

Too much fear, however, can hold us back in our lives. To fear, anything new is terrifying. Anything we haven’t seen or experienced before is a threat. Any change is a reason to shrink into ourselves and put up walls.

That kind of fear keeps us stuck in our old lives, our old relationships, our old patterns. It prevents us from experiencing all that life has to offer us. It prevents us from changing. It wants us to stay in our comfort zone - but some of the best things in life are outside our comfort zone.

Fear is a great tool, but it is a terrible driver. I hope these affirmations help us remember to use it as a tool, but never to let it drive our lives.
