Fear Or Love - Choose Today!

 3 minute read

Feelings are given to us as a gift .They tell us the condition of our heart, ( the emotional one not the pumping one). When we acknowledge our emotions and stop to label them as well as we can, we are able to slow down our reactions and respond instead with the right action. When we don’t take care of ourselves in this way, life carries us along where it will.

Fear is where worry and anxiety safely hide. The good news is that we don’t have to be carried along by fear and other negative emotions for any length of time when we take action. The action can simply be to own my feelings and to decide to move in the opposite direction.

So what is the opposite direction?

  Love is the opposite direction !

Then what lives in the fear zone?

Things such as worry, anxiety, pride, anger, resentment, irresponsibility, un-forgiveness, victimhood, control of others, chaos, avoidance, isolation, depression, denial, blame, being closed to personal growth, defensiveness and more, are connected to fear.

  Not a great package!

On the other hand, the things that live in the love zone are a great package!

Attributes such as self-control, humility, peace, kindness, forgiveness, freedom, choice, responsibility, healthy relationships, belonging, personal growth, agreement with the truth, joy, patience, fidelity and more, live in love .

Fear and love produce their own fruit. The results are very different.

What would life be like if you moved ( not perfectly, but whole heartedly) into love ? How would you feel ?

Why do it?

This Decision to move is the first step but it must have some companions, called Structure (The small steps of daily do-able habits) and Relationship (the people or person who will support, love you and provide accountability) in order to succeed.

Why + Decision + Structure + Relationship = the winning combo!

Take steps toward the qualities that live in love and your life…

… will take an upward turn.
