Fear is something we all deal with, but you can train your mind to face it with faith and courage. Here’s how to change your thinking and grow stronger every day:
1. Change Fear into Faith
When you’re scared, try to think in a more positive way. This helps your brain stop being afraid and start being brave.
Did you know that the average person has 70,000 thoughts every day, and about 70% of them are negative? That’s a lot of fear!
Start paying attention to your fearful thoughts. When you notice one, change it to something hopeful.
For example, instead of thinking, “I can’t speak in front of people, they’ll laugh at me,” say,
“I’ll prepare well and speak with confidence.”
This small shift can make a big difference.
2. Write Down Your Fears
If you’re afraid to try something new (like writing a book), ask yourself why you feel that way.
Maybe, as a child, someone made you feel like you weren’t good enough. That memory might still be affecting you today.
Write about it. When you see where your fear started, it won’t seem as strong anymore.
Facing the fear on paper can help you feel brave enough to move forward and start that book (and maybe even finish it!).
3. Write About Your Past Wins
Sometimes we focus too much on our failures and forget all the things we’ve done well.
Make it a habit to write down your past victories—even small ones.
When fear tries to stop you, read through your journal and remind yourself,
“I’ve succeeded before, I can do it again.”
If you don’t write it down, you might forget—and fear will take over.
4. Focus on What’s Good
Fear can blind you to the good things in your life. But there’s so much to be grateful for—you just have to notice it.
Start a gratitude list. Write down the blessings in your life, big or small.
When you focus on what’s going well, fear loses its power.
Thinking this way helps you feel calm, thankful, and full of hope. That’s how you build a mindset of abundance, not fear.
5. Believe in Yourself
No matter what has happened in your past, know that you deserve good things.
Believe in yourself before expecting others to do the same. Love yourself and know your worth.
We often put ourselves last, but you should always remember:
You matter. You are enough. And you can succeed.
Conclusion
Keep your mind strong. A positive mindset is like a reset button—it helps you let go of fear and move towards success.
Stay inspired. Stay hopeful. You’ve got this.
