Love & Fear in Action

Here are a few more examples of how choosing from love or fear works.

We can say that we are being more conscious about what we eat and how we eat because we want to enjoy good health and do the things we love to do.

Or we can say that we need to refrain from eating certain foods and make ourselves get up and exercise because we are afraid of getting a heart attack, diabetes complications or cancer if we don't.

Which form of motivation is more appealing? Which will keep us motivated?

We can say that we will stay in a relationship that is unsatisfactory and unfulfilling because dating, making new friends and developing new relationships can be a challenging experience that pulls us out of our comfort zone.

Or we can say that dating new people, making new friends and developing new relationships is an exciting, invigorating experience.

Which approach will add more joy to our life?
