Rudykh, A.V. Overcoming the Fear of Self-Actualization: Step-by-Step Method of Personal Adoption of the Values of Being

Abstract: The author of the article views the fear of self-actualization as the main obstacle in one’s personal growth and adoption of general human values. In order to develop an efficient method of overcoming the fear of self-actualization, the author views this phenomenon from the dialectic positions of deficient and existential cultural mentalities. Based on the analysis of the phenomenological model of individual consciousness offered by the author, Rudykh offers a step-by-step analysis of the method of overcoming the fear. The author describes the role and opportunities of personal innovations, spiritual crisis and the awe-fear in the process of personal development and adoption of the values of Being. The author proves that the existential fear enhanced by the spiritual crisis takes the form of the ‘awefear’ which, in its turn, makes the fear of self-actualization even stronger and an individual appears to be more open for the true personal innovation. In this case any deficiency fear creates the picture showing what values should be reviewed and changed in order to get rid of the fear once and for all. The present article will be interesting not only for philosophers and psychologist but also for all who are interested in human being and existence.


Keywords:
