FEAR FACTOR
Its amazing what you can learn about
life just by watching.
One of the first things I noticed driving around Sydney yesterday was how busy everyone is doing ‘stuff’.
It made realize that most of us are too busy running around to notice that much of our busyness is fear based.
With some pretty big decisions to make over the next week, it dawned on me that the mountain questions I had running around in my head might also fit into this category.
So I boiled them down to just 5. What im now calling THE FEAR FACTORS. Since they are the most common cause of us making life decisions based on fear rather than inspiration or love.
1) How will we eat?
2) Where will we live?
3) What will happen to us in the future?
4) What if I make the wrong decision?
5) What will people think?
A Course In Miricles points out that fear, like darkens, only exists in the absence of light (understanding). That’s why we are afraid of what we don’t know.
So why, when walking along lifes path, do we make spend so much time satisfying the insatiable appetite of the 5 fear factors, basing our decisions on what ‘might’ occur in the darkness.
Wouldn’t it be better to take all the energy we expend on worry and fear and focus on becoming fully engaging in a decision based on light, inspirational and love????
Maybe its time to find out!
