Have you ever wondered why in a critical situation some die, others survive? What influences the ability to stay in this world longer? Psychologists believe that everything depends on your personal relationship with death.
Necessary
You need to understand your relationship with death in order to be able to defeat it in a critical situation
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, you need to learn how to deal with the fear of death. The more people panic in a critical situation, the greater their chance of dying. It is known that the most hopeless alarmists run towards the waves of the tsunami, begin to look into the cracks in the crust during an earthquake, and run to the source of the fire, and not from it. The less you are afraid of death, the more you will keep a cool head, which will save you at the right time.
Step 2
Look for your own personal ways to manage your fear of death. For some, they are in religion, for others - in the study of medicine or other disciplines on safety, and for others - in reading books on existential philosophy. Existential philosophy deals precisely with the fear of death and the purpose of man's existence on this earth. It has many answers to questions that plague those who are overly afraid of death.
Step 3
Study the subject that you associate more with death. Some are afraid of car accidents, while others are afraid of cancer. Some people are scared of flying on an airplane, while others are afraid to eat food with colored dyes. Study the subject of your fears in detail. After all, neither a trip by car, nor bright candies, nor airplanes, nor even cancer become fatal for millions of people on the planet. So why do you need extra fears that will poison your life?
Step 4
Understand why dangerous situations arise in your life. Often they are a signal that something needs to be changed. Even a difficult diagnosis can become not at all a road to the grave, but a way to discard all unnecessary and concentrate forces only on worthwhile matters.
