Step 3 - Stay positive. Fear can come from creating negative (or even catastrophic) scenarios about the future in your mind. We often create so much negativity around something that it's important to step back and ask ourselves a few questions - What are my negative beliefs about this change? How many times have I successfully navigated change in the past? What worked in how I handled the change?
Be curious, rather than being scared. Be curious about what a change would mean. And focus on the facts, instead of the worst-case scenarios you are congering in your head. So often we worry more about getting rid of fear of change than learning how to live with it and move on. Just accept that you can't control the external events in your life and embrace what you can control – your attitude.
Another way to stay positive is to reduce your stress. Meditation and spending time outdoors are great for that. Doing either, our better yet both, will make you feel more calm, relaxed, and peaceful.
Remember that change is an opportunity. Have faith in yourself and your ability to be resilient.
