From the matters which should necessitate fear of falling into shirk is the great number of deviant scholars who deceive the people by informing them that shirk is not important.
One the most important principles in avoiding shirk is to learn about it - What is it? What are it's dangers? What are its types? After learning, we should then propagate to all we know, starting with our families.

Lesson 35 - The categories of shirk - Part 3
From the matters which should necessitate fear of falling into shirk is that the Prophet ﷺ considered shirk being more subtle than the footsteps of an ant.
Also from the matters which should necessitate fear of falling into shirk is that the Prophet ﷺ feared showing off in worship (a form of minor shirk) more than he feared upon his Ummah the great fitnah of the Dajaal.
Taking photos and videos on a smartphone of acts of worship has greatly facilitated showing off in worship, and can be considered as a great fitnah.
The Prophet ﷺ taught his Ummah a du'aa to protect them from all forms of shirk:
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ أَنْ أُشْرِكَ بِكَ وَأَنَا أَعْلَمُ، وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِمَا لا أَعْلَمُ
O Allah! I seek refuge in you lest I associate anything with you knowingly, and I seek your forgiveness for what I do not know. [Bukhari - al-Adab al-Mufrad - Sahih]

Lesson 34 - The categories of shirk - Part 2
From the matters which should necessitate fear of falling into shirk is that despite Allah's great Mercy, the one who dies upon shirk has no hope or share in this mercy and the Hellfire will be their abode for eternity.
Their punishment in the Hellfire will start in their graves. They will wish they could return to this world to worship Allah upon tawheed, or that they would die to be relieved from the severe punishment. They will only receive an increase in punishment.
Our example in fearing falling into shirk is Prophet Ibraheem, who made a du'aa for himself and his progeny that they be saved from the worship of the idols.

Lesson 33 - The categories of shirk - Part 1
Shirk can be divided into major shirk, minor shirk and hidden shirk.
Another categorisation is by its opposite category of tawheed. That is shirk in Ruboobiyah, shirk in Uloohiyya and shirk in Asmaa' was-Sifaat.
Major shirk is to make other than Allah equal to Allah in one or more of Allah's specific rights (e.g. worship). It removes a person from Islam, and their abode in the Hellfire will be eternal.
The fear of falling into shirk should be greater than any other fear we may have. It should drive us to take the means (asbaab) by which to avoid and be saved from it.
