Internal and external fear is how you perceive the environment around you. As things come at you, how are you processing them in your mind and then coming up with responses? Depending on your reaction to an action, will let you know if fear is controlling your life. We can all be fearful at times, but when the immediate worry is over, does it continue to cause an impact on your life?
If this is the case, you are missing the resources on how to actively deal with these issues. In order to not let fear, run your life, please reach out to the people that you need to help whether that is doctors, psychologists, peers or whomever. Never bottle up your emotions of fear, as there is always a way out of the mindset that you may be trapping yourself into.
As a business consultant, too often we have employees that don’t know where to turn or how to act around certain situations. This leads to anxiety, depression and all the other medical terms used today to diagnose someone. You are letting the fear of something happening in the future dictate how you respond. Don’t let this happen. Find help in communicating and asking for help.
Where a lot of businesses miss the mark is how they communicate with the staff. Leaders don’t really lead, and most businesses don’t take the time or effort to understand the staff that achieve daily tasks. We are not saying that businesses are all to blame but the business must understand that a person’s way of life and means to financial security comes when they step through the doors of your business. They rely on you to make a wage to then pay for their bills. And we have consulted with enough employees and business to know that most fears in staff come from the business they work for and the wage that they make.
