7 YRS PROCESS - DAY 419 - FEAR OF COMPUTERS

GO BACK

Fear of computers

Although I have been using the computer quite a lot for the last 8 years my usage and work with the computer was basically around the Windows OS, internet and other software. I have never really gone into the hardware as such but now has come a moment when it was kind of necessary because I wanted to upgrade and optimize my computer. Thus I have started to learn about it by reading various articles and watch the videos on Youtube which explain almost everything about it. And it was surprising to see that this is not as difficult and complicated as I have thought before.

Thus after gathering the knowledge I went to the shop to buy the parts with the intention to do it later myself at home. Normally I would take my computer to somebody and ask them to do it for me because I was kind afraid to break something. On one hand it is normal because what is the point of breaking my computer and later paying for repairing it ? But in that moment of my life I don't have too much money to be able to pay others to do it thus I have decided to take calculated risk and do it myself ( I call it calculated because I have first learned as much as I could about the topic before doing it ). And I did it. I was a little bit concerned and nervous about it despite seeing the tutorials explaining that it is easy but I did it. And I have lost my virginity... lol...

Now... what does it have to do with my 7 years process of transformation into life ?

Within this experience I had to face a certain fear - fear of opening the computer and changing the parts inside of it. But we can look "scientifically" at this behavioural pattern behind it and realise that fear as always is being created within the mind and based on this fear we are limiting ourselves. And it is very easy to see it within my experience. I have created an idea ( fear within my mind that I can break it ) that the computers are complicated stuff and I was keeping myself far away from it. It was not real but it seemed to be real within my mind and I have made it look this way. All that was necessary was to read some articles or even ask some people etc. and look at the practical aspects of it and get over it. But I have not done it for a very long time and instead I have dedicated energy to maintain this belief alive within my mind and myself.

But now I am over it and I am not afraid of it anymore. And thanks to it a new door has opened for me and I have already started to earn money by fixing the computers of other people. Of course I am not the professional and I did only couple of small jobs but important is that I have done it after so many years of keeping this useless belief within my mind.

Now... in the same way as I have kept this fear within my mind free-willingly ( because nobody has forced me to do it ) about the computers, we keep and maintain a lot of fears about many things within our lives. It is useless and unnecessary because it only limits us. Thus I suggest that you investigate your fears, face them and stop giving them your energy and limiting yourself. Every time you will face and conquer your fear you will free yourself from it and you will open new door and you will be glad that you did it.
