“Reading this guide is a first
step into the rest of your life.”
Fear is a
state of mind or emotion when we sense personal danger. Some people are more prepared than others to
rationalize their fears. It can prevent
us from harm by removing us from the situation, but can also cause unbearable,
immobilizing anxiety. Someone living
with fear may make unhealthy life choices because they are afraid that they are
incapable of forming a well balanced decision.
The author, Stanley Popovich
presents three main principles in this layman’s guide to managing
fear:
General Counseling Techniques encourages critical thinking and deductive reasoning. In order to make an informed confident choice, facts must be gathered first, and well researched. One must also factor in the ‘what if’ scenarios. Then with common sense reasoning determine what is most important. The reader is enlightened by the examples used of ‘John and Mary’s’ unpredictable situations.
Non-Resistant
Methods of dealing with fear is more of a defensive
approach. We all have ‘triggers’ that
bring on anxiety and it is important to recognize them, not allowing ourselves
to be ruled by them.
Christianity is a religion based on the
teachings of Jesus Christ. Belief in faith can provide a powerful foundation for
problem solving.
FEAR is an introduction for readers who yearn to control
their negative reactions. Stanley
Popovich provides basic but exceptionally valuable steps in learning how to
personally manage negative situations. Along with detailed stories the reader is
provided with websites dealing with fear, twelve pertinent suggestions and
several Biblical scriptures that provide support. As the title suggests, it may be used as a
guide and empty pages are provided for your own
notations.
Stanley Popovich has used his
writing skills, analytical talents, interviews and diligent research in an
attempt to educate readers. He was
educated at Pennsylvania State University and has used these approaches in his
own life.
I am no stranger to fear. In the past I had allowed myself to become
controlled by it. Through reading,
research and my physician’s advise I learned that there are many courses to take
pertaining to the subject. I have completed several, adding a new confidence to
my life. One is unable to enjoy a
fulfilling life when fear is ever present. For more information

step into the rest of your life.
