THE FEAR OF LOSS
Loosing is the scariest thing for anyone. It’s not just the loss of life but what dies within us while we are living. Most life events are full of uncertainties, and we can only fear what the results might be. We are afraid of losing what we already have. There is no guarantee for compensation for the risk taken. It made us paranoid about reality. Many questions cross our minds, yet we have no answers to them. As challenging as life is, we still can’t leave with ourselves, knowing that we will have to give up all the things that are dear to us. When you are quitting a job one has a lot of questions .you have a fear of facing tomorrow without knowing how you will sustain yourself .thers no guarantee that you will get another job immediately or you will have to rely on saving. You often struggle with the sense of losing a livelihood. In a relationship, one tends to stick around long enough because walking away will be a loss. Most even when a connection is as evil and all signs show danger; we stick around since we are scared of the unknown. That is, we fear not finding someone to love us a certain sense of belonging. The feeling that you might end up all alone makes us stay in an abusive relationship .with the world’s current affair; one thinks they are better off where they are feeling secure. Hence this fear has given rise to mentally disturbed youth as they grow in messed families. We have a nation of individuals who cant make critical decisions as they are limited to do so. They have lost their power to fight for what is right, and as a result, they act only on command.this not only affects them as individuals but also the country.
In our investments, we are afraid of venturing into the riskiest ideas .there is the doubting instinct that you might end up losing it all. We feel secure with the little we have since we don’t want to get into any risk. Any business needs someone who can take any chance to make it work. As an investor, you might lose everything that keeps you on edge and makes you prefer keeping the little you have. As a result, most of us live minimal lives, and no one has the zeal to conquer the impossibilities. The fear of loss has forced many into inaction in their lives. We grow too much attached to our comfort zone, and no one is willing to leave. The fear of loss prevents us from pursuing our hearts desires, and we become slaves to salary and a regular source of income. Though losing is painful and everyone tries to avoid it at all costs. Only those who take risks end up enjoying the sweetness of their hard work .some bad decisions are also when one is afraid of the outcome. It’s too good to access what are the dire repercussions of our very actions.
What we lose materially can be overcome by adjusting our very mistakes. What scares me most is the loss of purpose, the sole reason for one’s existence. The realization that you have no meaning is scary enough.this is like you are not living but merely existing. You only work for money and nothing else. We are simply in our comfort bubble, and we lack any passion for the things we do. Every little aspect of our lives has monetary value, and that’s what drives us. No one is bold enough to follow their passion, what makes you happy. Its good to go for money but all that you leave behind when your time comes.what will you take with you ? all our possessions and material things will be left behind .you have to decide what is that one thing that you derive happiness. What makes you feel whole and motivated that no matter how many times you fail, you can pick yourself and fight more. The fear of the unknown keeps us away from our heart’s desire . all the things that we fear most happen to be the ones that bring meaning to our lives. We all have that one thing that brings out the best in us in all areas.
Our fear of facing our insecurities controls our lives. Not knowing what tomorrow holds or the outcome of certain events ensures that we remain stagnant in our growth. It’s easy to stay in comfort and not fight for what is indeed worth it. Many agree that fear is why they are in a stagnant growth since no one wants to face the unknown. We should finally let go of all the insecurities and create a world of possibilities. Face our fears and make limitless boundaries for us. Learn that every challenge has a solution, and all that takes only courage and determination to overcome. Start by acknowledging that life is not a straight line, and whatever happens, you are ready to face it to end. When you have challenges, you work on them tirelessly until you have a solution. Its time to face what you dread most and realize every dream that you have only then can you find fulfillment in your life.
