Fear is the root cause of most problems, although it may not seem obvious at first.

It’s not always self-evident how procrastination or financial and relationship problems are related to fear. The truth is, that every problem we have is rooted in fear.

Why do we have those problems mentioned above and why are we not able to solve them?

To be more specific about what I mean with those problems, I will dig deeper into them.

Fear is everywhere

In relationships we fear lots of possible causes, for example we might feel that we’re not good enough for our partner, fearing abandonment.
We might fear not being accepted or not having control over the relationship. Maybe we have trust issues we just can’t talk about, which will ruin our mind because we’re angry just thinking about them.

Financially, we often fear to change bad habits because we can’t let go of our comforts. The morning Starbucks, that is so necessary in our lives but burns so much money can’t be forgotten, although everyday we might fear spending too much and getting addicted to shopping and not getting out of it.
Shopping addiction is often caused by anxiety, meaning that we might fear our appearance not being good enough or just wishing for our life to be better than it currently is. We fear not being accepted in this society, thus many people are afraid of being judged if they have less than others, be it the car, the house or clothes.
