How To Find Your Fear Switch And Be Free of Phobias


Want to get over a lifelong Phobia instantly?

Melissa Concessio Says to Take Up This Easy Habit



We are not born fearless. It is a myth and the more you want to face your lifelong phobia, the easier it gets.

We all want to excel at things we never thought we could do:

  • Become unstoppable with our skills

  • Adapt to new environments

  • Feel like we can do anything even if we have phobias that are trying to hold us back

In her new book Go Find Yourself, Melissa Concessio gives us an immediate way to deal with fear. She calls this habit ‘The Fear Switch’.

“In every moment (window of time), you can make a choice whether you want to face your fear or live with it for the rest of your life.”

– Melissa Concessio

Melissa is bold about calling Fearlessness a myth. She confirms that people who seem fearless in fact feel fear at some point in their lives and in that moment, they choose to do it anyway. Over time this relationship to fear becomes redefined by the individual.

After going through childhood experiences that were less than perfect, years of trial and error through self-experimentation and turning it into a system anyone can use, she teaches us how to replicate her results in facing our fears.

By using a gripping story about almost drowning, Melissa compares the feeling of Fear to slow emotional drowning and how she overcame that moment by using the fear switch.

Here are her quick steps on how to find your Fear Switch.

  1. Make a commitment to doing things that scare you a little

  2. Deliberately practice in safe environments

  3. Take smart calculated risks that are good for you

  4. Try new things regularly and do things you never thought you could

  5. Take a calculated risk knowing the fear only resides in your mind


“We have an innate ability to grow from our fears and let our dreams lead us to where we really want to be.”
