3 Ways to Get Unstuck from Fear and Avoid Dying with Regret

Being stuck in fear really sucks!

,

You've been telling people that you're going to do something, but you haven't started because you're secretly afraid.

And that's natural because when you want to accomplish something you've never done before.

Your mind can get stuck in fear.

And I know how frustrating that can be.

So here are 3 things you can do to get unstuck from fear and avoid dying with regret.

1. Admit that you are afraid

When I was a kid, I was afraid of water.

And when we drove home, seeing the kids playing in the local swimming pool would raise my heart rate.

Despite that, I would say, "Mama, if we go to that pool, I will jump in."

I would say this because I didn't think she would take us there.

I was wrong.

Because one Saturday, she surprised my little sister and me when she said, "We are going to the pool."

When we got to the pool, my mama and my sister got into the pool.

I was so terrified that I sat on a park bench.

We went 3 more Saturdays in a row.

And as I sat watching my sister have fun with the other kids in the water.

I realized I was stuck in fear.

So I admitted to myself that I was afraid.

That admission.

Lead me to start mentally challenging the reasons for my fear.

You see, I had this belief that if I stepped into the water, I would drown.

To show how ridiculous this was, the water my sister and Mama were in was just 2 feet deep.

I was over 4 feet tall.

So there is no way I was going to drown stepping in.

Also.

There were other adults and lifeguards there, so getting into 2 feet of water was totally safe.

By challenging my fear’s reasons.

It weakened my fear’s grip on my mind.

And when you admit that you are afraid of whatever is holding you back from your dream.

And start challenging the reasons.

You will begin to become unstuck from your fear.

2. Take small steps to build momentum

There was one small thing that I could do that would help me start building momentum to overcome my pool fear.

That was putting on a life jacket.

One Saturday morning, we arrived at the pool and I shocked my mama.

She smiled at me with her beautiful brown face and warm smile, and in her sweet voice asked, "Jr., are you going to the bench?"

"No, I'm going to put on a life jacket."

I walked into the pool area, put on a life jacket, and sat at the pool's edge with my feet in the water.

This was a small step.

But huge for my confidence.

Because it allowed me to start building momentum to overcome my fear of the swimming pool.

You see, it doesn't matter what your goal or dream is.

If you find a small step you can take, you can start building momentum to get unstuck from your fear.

3. Keep building momentum with consistent action

A big mistake many of us make is taking a small step once and then never doing it again.

That's why you must commit to consistently taking that action and then add more to break free from fear.

I sat on the side of that pool with a life jacket on and my feet in the water for several weeks.

And you know what that consistency led to?

You got it!

I got into the water.

It happened because I committed myself to taking consistent action, which gave me the confidence to overcome that fear.

You see, you also have the power to get unstuck from your fear.
