The real reasons we feel fear

Every person on the planet experiences fear. It serves a purpose in our lives: Fear of physical harm and of the unknown can help keep us safe. It fulfills one of our deepest human needs for certainty. Yet we also need a certain amount of uncertainty in order to grow and achieve our goals – and fear can easily become an excuse that holds us back.

Whether you’re dealing with a struggling business, unhealthy relationships, a lack of love or you’re just not feeling fulfilled, it all goes back to fear. But F.E.A.R. is actually an abbreviation for False Evidence that Appears Real. The false evidence that fuels our fear is our limiting beliefs: the deep-seated beliefs we hold about who we really are and what we’re capable of. These are the stories we tell ourselves, created in our formative years and molded, forged and sharpened by our experiences throughout life.

Two of the most common limiting beliefs are the foundation of fear. First, there is the belief that we are not enough – rich enough, smart enough, sexy enough, funny enough. That we just don’t have what it takes to reach our dreams. Even worse, we may believe that we’re not strong enough. That if we fail, we’ll never recover, so we don’t even bother.

The second limiting belief that fuels fear is the belief that we’ll never be loved – or that we don’t deserve love. As Tony says, “Love is the oxygen of life.” Love and connection are two powerful human needs, and this belief can be incredibly damaging to our ability to feel fulfilled in life.

So how do you overcome fear? You need to master your psychology. Transform your mindset. Cultivate a deep belief in yourself: If you don’t have a skill, you can learn it. If you don’t know something, you can find the answer. And if you fail, you can learn from it and bounce back. Get started at Unleash the Power Within.

Honestly I've honestly only started listening to your messages and that definitely makes a lot of sense. Thank you for all you I really needed to hear that.

I've listened to Anthony Robbins and Dr. Brene Brown over the years. Great motivational and transformational leaders! COVID19 and the Coronovirus Pandemic, the Aftermath which will be who knows when and at what economic costs; 2020's Racial Equality protests, riots and looting nationwide, unrest, turbulence over Black Lives Matter and Police Reform (or defunding), and a highly charged but very divided American political climate will truly test the principles taught to the core!

Fear is one of the seven universal emotions experienced by everyone around the world. Fear arises with the threat of harm, either physical,  emotional, or psychological, real or imagined. While traditionally considered a “negative” emotion, fear actually serves an important role in keeping us safe as it mobilizes us to cope with potential danger.

I know the feeling of not feeling like enough. When I feel it it actually is painful. Ouch.

Tony thanks man. I think we’re kindred spirits. You have dep understanding of achievement and human psychology

Fear of rejection, which is not being loved, is not the same as not enough. That's like saying anger is sadness. Anger hides sadness.

[knowbuddy]

Yes and no . Fear is also something that can save your life or keep you from harm. I’m not trolling I like what Tony has to share. I’m just saying fear is more complexed then just these two aspects.
