FEAR has two meanings:

Forget Everything And Run   OR   Face Everything And Rise

And here I am trying to face my fears with the “Integrity” Workshop. I would surely say that this workshop is relatable in so many ways. We, being involved in our own lives at all times feel that we are the only ones in pain, we are the only ones who have fears deep inside. However, after listening to the fears of fellow members, I felt I am not the only one with them and I can surely work upon these fears and let it go…

 

I am looking forward to understanding my fears, develop an action plan for those Level 1 fears and face the fears which aren’t discovered yet!

 

As very well said by Nelson Mandela, “I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.”, I would like to conquer my fears as well.

What is Fear ?
F…E…A…R…False Evidence/Expectations Appearing Real (From abbreviation.com) and that’s why perhaps it is said to face the fear so that one realizes that it is not real but appearing to be real.

Knowing oneself through identifying one’s fear was the focul point of the discussion in Integrity classes. It was fascinating to think about the fear that has emerged suddenly and recently. Moreover, understanding the meaning of Integrity from various perspectives as well as fear has helped me analyse my fears in a better way. It means that I need to work on them in the days to come.

Thank you, both the facilitators for giving us this wonderful opportunity to reflect and all the participants for sharing your experiences which has made the workshop an enriching experience in the true sense of the term for all of us.

To have LIFE CLASSES in the school is a very good experience, it helps us to know ourselves better.

The first part of INTEGRITY was introduction section where I could express myself with a poem which was my own creation. I never thought about this earlier and was happy to do so for the first time in life.

We shared all our fears where I could reflect upon my fears and how I fought with them and today became a confident human being who do believe that everything is possible and I am capable to handle anything and everything.

Thus, this type of discussions and sharing helps one to be confident. The truth that it is not only you who is facing problems in life makes you the problem solver. 

 

Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

The AHA moment for me would be discovering the actual meaning of integrity and how thin a line exists between honesty and integrity, which often confuses us.

This session made me come to face with many of my base fears and some unexplainable too. How strangely are they connected to each one and our behavior is astonishing. Integrity class and the members especially were a great support for me to able to face my fear and more importantly able to share and talk about them.

We usually are under the impression of it’s our life that’s quite difficult and how unfair it is to us. Listening to everyone’s sharing was truly an eye-opener and building up of strength to actually face our fears and making efforts to try overcoming them, doesn’t matter for it to be just a fraction of improvement.

Looking forward and much positive about the upcoming integrity classes. 🙂

 

Fear. A word so dreadful to make us shiver. So impactful that a drop of sweat runs down our spine. So powerful to stop us from reaching the seventh sky!

Fear- of failure, of losing all that we have, of being mocked by others and what not. Fear of facing our fears.

And yet here we are, in a room full of courageous people talking anything and everything about their fears; admitting and accepting our fears with open arms.

Kudos to all of us and to the facilitators to instill bravery within each other to face these fears of all kind. I hope we conquer them before they conquer our happiness and dreams.

Take every chance. Drop your FEAR!

Reflection of Integrity class

First I want to thank to my group members and facilitators who motivates me to share my personal life without any hesitation.

In those two days I have learnt about different stages of fear. I got to know my fear and also got different strategies and the solution to overcome it.

I want to share my AHA moment is before we started our session we all were in that sense that we all know each other very well because since from 2 years the batch is same but when session started we got to know that no still there are things which  we don’t know.

I liked the movie also because from that I got to know to how fear is doing great part in your life so you should overcome your fear.

After love class  I heard that Integrity class will be boring but I really appreciate to our facilitators that I have enjoyed the session the most.

Both the sessions were interesting and helpful for me. We had a session where we all shared our fears, we came to know about the stages of fear. In sessions, I realized that fear is always either what happened yesterday or what may happen tomorrow. So our suffering is always about that which does not exist. To keep in mind the following quote, I have started to face my fears of level 1.

“अगर आज हम अपने डर पर काबू नहीं पा लेते हैं , तो कल यही डर हम पर काबू पा लेगा “

:-अरविन्द कटोच

 

Both the sessions were interesting and helpful. We learn about 3 stages of fear. Fear is in ourselves we have to over come to it which will help us only to live life with full of happiness. The movie we watched ( My sister’s keeper) was very nice and we were able to connect it to attended sessions. It is helpful for personal and professional life.

We had a session where we all shared our fears with the whole team and our facilitators really helped us be more forthcoming with our feelings.

As part of engagements, I introspected and realised various fears I have.

Of all my fears, I decided to start facing my level 1 fears like fear of darkness, fear of ghosts and spirits.

By realising the fact that these are my fears of mind, I have formed few strategies to face these fears.

WIll share once the first few experiments are successful.

I appreciate the group members and our facilitators for helping each other share feelings and be comfortable with each other. We were very close and there was no hesitation in sharing our feelings. Listening to all and suggestions given by all has made me strong.

Thanks to my ‘Integrity’ group for the change (though a bit now) that I can see in myself.

The most effective learning for me was to never judge a person immediately.

Going to the Civil hospital has taught me to understand the problems people face whether a mother, child or relatives.
