You are not at the mercy of your thoughts. They do not exist in the real world, or anywhere else other than your mind. They only become real if you create an intention and then follow through with action. This means your fears cannot harm you, only make you uncomfortable. Say you have a concern about your health (assuming is unfounded). Your brain might be sending you messages that you are going to get sick and die, and this might cause you feelings of intense fear, which makes the event seem imminent. When this feeling takes over, stop and step back for a moment. Look at what is actually happening around you. Your mind is playing tricks on you. No matter how scary your thoughts are on the inside, come back to reality.
Change your Brain
Using Neuroplasticity to Retrain Your Brain for Discipline, Courage, Motivation, & Good Habits
Life is full of setbacks. That isn't something we can change. What we can do is react to them in a way that works toward finding a solution for them- or not. To achieve the former, you must work for what you say you want. Think about a time you've done something with low confidence in your ability to do it, and your heart wasn't in it- for example, going into a presentation when you aren't feeling well. Now think about when you felt the opposite- feeling your best, liking the way you look, and sure that you know what you were supposed to do. In which instance was your performance better?

If your brain is cluttered, it is nothing to be ashamed of. Everyone struggles with that at times. Think about when your room is disorganized. The answer isn't to beat yourself up about it. You just need to clean it up.
You can think of your mind as a room. It is your private space that no one can access but you. With this comes the responsibility to keep it orderly because it affects every area of your life. This is an ongoing process. Just as you need to clean your bedroom regularly, you need to do the same for your mind.
