How to push away fear?

Talk To Nishant

Worries often plague us. We anticipate that something terrible might be lurking around the corner. I am healthy today, but what if I fall ill? I have money saved, but what if I lose my job? My partner loves me, but what if she leaves me in the future? We suffer more often in imagination than in reality! How to deal with fear? Express gratitude before falling into a dark, bottomless pit of worry. Most of our fears are groundless. Baseless fears can make us paranoid and impact our mental health. Identify whether the fear is real or not! Do you have valid reasons to worry? I am healthy today, but what if I fall ill? - Have you experienced any symptoms which might point out towards illness? I have money saved, but what if I lose my job? - Are you spending a lot? Are you not giving your best at work? If your proofs of future troubles are not concrete then, why worry. If the proofs are concrete - Prepare yourself with preventive measures and remedial steps. Seneca on groundless fears - "It is likely that some troubles will befall us; but it is not a present fact. You will suffer soon enough, when it arrives; so look forward meanwhile to better things."
