Hi Seva!

I cannot tell you the "how" of anything. That is up to each person to find out for him/her self...

The line between preparation and panic is drawn inside each individual. Where else? If you do what you do because that feels right and it is an expression of your inner urge and Joy you can very well be preparing and be peaceful inside at the same time. Just like preparing for a party with good friends or familiy might make you peaceful. But if your preparation is highly motivated by all sorts of "what if" scenarios which have given your already present fear a lot of good excuses to "take you over", then you are moving closer to panic... Point is: Fear is there in the first place and has been for a long time, the outside events are just bringing it up to the surface and it is up to you how to handle that fear in order to grow out of it. All is an opportunity.

If you really feel the need to prepare, then there should not be any fear in it because you are doing what feels right for you and you are doing your best to express what feels right for you. No problem. However, if you are preparing because of "outside influence" when in reality your "higher self" is trying to guide you to move in another direction or do something totally "unexpected" or different, then you can easily move into panic because you are not listening to your own inner guide. You have given your power away to outside "authorities" which you might feel "know better" than you do. Nobody knows better than yourself what is right for you. Fear is blocking your ability to listen to your own guidence. Therefore fear must be dealt with by each of us individually. It helps to view everything as an experience for growth, and thus accept that this is what you must have signed up to experience. No matter what it might be...
