Facing Fear – structure fears clearly, act boldly
Facing Fear helps you make inner hurdles tangible — with a clear method of Definition, Prevention, Repair, scenarios, and concrete next steps. This way you make better decisions, reduce rumination, and get into action.
Why Facing Fear?
- Clarity instead of catastrophizing: organize thoughts, assess risks, and see in black and white what truly matters.
- Action instead of procrastination: set concrete steps — with due dates and reminders.
- Reflect & learn: compare expectation vs. reality and close topics consciously.
How it works
- Define: What is it really about? Describe your fear/decision.
- Prevent & Repair: What can you do to prevent problems — and what if something does go wrong?
- Scenarios: Worst case, most likely course, and best case.
- Costs of inaction: What happens if you change nothing (6/12/36 months)?
- Next steps: Max. three concrete actions incl. date.
- Assessment: Severity, likelihood, controllability — as a risk score (0–100).
- Review: Set a review date.
- Close out: Reflect at the end (“What actually happened?” and “What will I tell myself next time?”) and archive the entry.
