I’M SCARED! LIVING IN FEAR IS NOT SMART

Scared woman

But I don’t live in fear… you must be thinking.

Perhaps, but it’s quite likely that you are living in fear and you haven’t even noticed. But first, what kind of FEAR are we talking about?

It’s not fear of being unsafe… so what could we possibly be afraid of?

First, let’s answer some questions…

Are you paying off credit card debts?

Do you have a mortgage?

Do you live paycheck to paycheck?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then you are probably caught in that cycle that was designed and imposed as the only way of life.

Live –> work –> pay off debts –> get rid of stress –> 30 days –> repeat cycle –> 12 30-day cycles –> repeat cycle

One by one. If you pay your credit cards like clockwork every month, you don’t do it because you are well-organized, or because you’re a good citizen, you do it because you’re AFRAID of the consequences of NOT paying, for example:::::::::::::::

Afraid of the shame of being thought of by others as a debtoooooor….

Afraid that they’ll take away all your “nice things”

Afraid you’ll be sent to jail for not paying

Afraid they’ll go after you for not paying

Afraid of being left empty-handed

So… what’s your solution for this FEAR? I’ll get a “stable” job that gives me enough money each month to pay off my debts.

You pay your debts, and the solution lasts… 30 DAYS.

30 days later, you have to pay off that FEAR again, and so on

time

after time

after time

until you die

and you’ll most probably die WITHOUT having done THOUSANDS of things that you REALLY wanted to do…

That whole cycle I refer to as “the ordinary,” and the only way of getting out of it is by “tWisting the ordinary” which is accomplished by actively using that which you carry around between your ears, otherwise known as a brain.

That’s what creativity is all about, that’s what it means to be Creative.

Speak up! Well... write up!
