How do YOU achieve SUCCESS…Overcoming FEAR
Fear
Why is everyone so scared?
Why are YOU so scared?
Don’t pretend like YOU aren’t afraid of something?
YOU live in a day and age when everyone is afraid of this or that or everything.
YOU have anxiety then YOU have fear.
YOU have panic then YOU have fear.
YOU have worry then YOU have fear.
YOU have depression then YOU have fear.
Fear has such a grip that according to an online insurance marketplace 65 million people (1 in 5) are now prescribed medication to help them cope with stress, anxiety or depression.
What is creating all the fear, anxiety, panic and worry?
To answer this question, YOU must go back to the very beginning.
The book of Genesis is part of the Torah or Pentateuch, the first five books of the Bible.
Tradition credits Moses as the Torah’s author.
Moses wrote in Genesis 1:1, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.”
He then lays out the creation story of how God created the light and darkness, the sky and the sea, land, plants, and trees, the sun, the moon, and stars, the sea creatures and the flying creatures, the land animals and then humans.
The story goes on to say that God created man and woman and placed them in a garden with the instruction that they could eat freely from everything in the garden except for the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
In chapter three Moses writes that the serpent came to the woman and tempted her to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
She could not resist this temptation and both she and her husband ate the fruit from it.
As soon as they had eaten the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, Moses writes in Genesis 3:8, that they hid themselves from God.
God asked the man, where are you, and the man said, “I was afraid because I was naked; so, I hid.”
Did YOU catch that word, afraid.
In that very moment, he felt fear for the first time.
He had such a massive panic attack he went and tried to hide from his creator.
What can YOU learn from this story?
Fear is real.
Fear has been here since the beginning of time.
Fear is our enemy.
But fear is something we can overcome.
YOU will not allow fear, anxiety, worry, and negativity to contaminate YOUR belief in achieving YOUR obsessuccess.
Remember, fear tolerated is faith/belief contaminated.
Nothing or no one will make YOU fear and contaminate YOUR faith/belief.
Until next time,
Be Obsessuccess.
