Sometimes, you have to conquer your fears to become successful or achieve continued success!
Fear can either paralize you or optimize you. We each need to decide how we want to live our lives.
I used to fear everything–certainly all the things you mentioned in this article. But counseling and relying on God has changed the vast majority of that.
Fear can impair formation of long-term memories and cause damage to certain parts of the brain, such as the hippocampus. This can make it even more difficult to regulate fear and can leave a person anxious most of the time. To someone in chronic fear, the world looks scary and their memories confirm that.
Such a very insightful article to read. Fears definitely gives you a good and a bad effects depends on how you manage or handle it but I agree with others that sometimes we need to overcome our fears to become successful.
Fear is inherent in us. Being afraid of everything and everyone, the terror of making a mistake or going to disappointment. But pain is part of growth, without which we would be nothing.
Fear has a different effect in us. Most thing that i fear before is fear of rejection by someone that is important to me.
This was a very insightful article. It’s funny how fear effects each person differently. I’ve been working on overcoming something’s I’ve been fearing.
I try to always step outside of my comfort zone. I think that’s important to do to help with fear.
Failure is something that scares me and I work at that all the time. Thank you for this.
Fear is something that each and everyone pass through but how you manage it is what makes a difference. Thanks
I think that fear is a friend and a enemy at the same time. We have to learn how to identify when fear can help us or when fear can be bad for us.
This article is spot on with me. I do get afraid way too often
Sometimes, these fears overpower my positivity and I feel pretty unmotivated. I think it’s important to understand when the fear is good and when it’s consuming me.
Leaving my comfort zone and criticism is always hard for me. I love hearing your point of view.
I agree all of this! But sometimes fear can’t help to grow I believe that you need to conquer your fears and challenge yourself to achieve your dreams.
Great closing point of moving passed the restraints of fear and moving into an inspiring life. Managing fear in a balanced way seems to be the key. I guess that goes with most things in life…..moderation!
Loved your blog. What an interesting topic. It was such an interesting read.
Fear is the most defining sickness that we are afraid these days. Let us overcome these to gain good health.
I agree that fear has both positive and negative effects on one’s life. It is normal to be afraid, but we should remember to be confident in certain times. Thank you for this article.
Great Abu. Next step: conquer my fears. Life is beautiful and thank you so much for putting this together.
I always try to step out of my comfort zone but I am somewhat afraid of failure and rejection from others.
I think that people should stop being afraid and just understand where the fear is coming from in order to confront it. Feat of failure? Take it as a lesson. Fear of rejection? Take is as avoiding later emotional pain. There is always a way to turn fear around.
We all have fears. It’s important to recognize those fears and use them to grow instead of bottle up our capabilities and not progress forward.
Fear certainly has a purpose in our lives, it keeps us from taking unnecessary risks and potentially getting ourselves hurt (or worse). However, when we allow our fears to take over every aspect of our lives, they can definitely hold us back and prevent us from achieving our goals and dreams. The key is to find the balance – learn to step out of our comfort zone and overcome our fears while also taking note of the risks that they are flagging around us.
Nicely summed up. Many believe that successful people do not have such fears. But the truth is everyone has them and the ones who overcome them taste success.
Fear is a very prominent emotion in people, it’s the root of anxiety which a lot of people suffer from. I personally have a fear of snakes and I think it is beneficial as it keeps me safe! Great post.
Very insightful article. Got me thinking. I guess we all are afraid of inadequacy..which causes self doubt and insecurity.
Being afraid does keep you safe but stepping out of your comfort zone is excellent too. I love your insight.
When you understand fear, you also understand all the problems related to that fear. It is quite essential to know internal fears and confront them.
i find this article very helpful! thank you for sharing this with us all!
These fear ofs are all true. It’s existence is evident to the lives of people. And it should be conquered anytime soon. Super insightful content to take a read of.
This article is so true and helpful. Fear exists to make us safe but there are times that we need to face our fear.
xoxo
Lovely
It’s true that fear holds everyone back from becoming what they truly have the ability to become.
Fear is a part of us. Everybody is afraid of something. The important thing is not allowing that fear to come between you and your goals. Easier said than done, I know. But with enough perseverance it can be done.
There’s definitely plenty to be afraid of in this day and age. I would say that right now i’m afraid of loss. Loss of family and loss of work with the pandemic.
Fear will always be present in everyone’s life, but it’s how we choose to deal with it that can make or break us.
You have a good insight in this post, nice way to lay it out for people to understand ; )
In our world we live in there is so much around us. Just stay focused and positive as you go along the way.
This is extremely deep and insightful. I think many people have fear in their lives for a variety of reasons. Thank you for sharing
Very well written and presented. I know what you’re getting at. I fear a lot of things, some mentioned in this post. Rejection is a big one for me. But it’s something I’m learning to overcome bit by bit.
Fear is a part of life, but I feel acknowledging it is a big step for growth.
Great post! Fear is a mind killer and it is important to know why you are afraid and how your body reacts to it. being afraid is not something to be ashamed of and it is important to feel it too but control is essential too
Being afraid is really holding us back in life. It limits our potential and self growth. One should examine what is that he is afraid of, rationalize it and conquer it!
This reminds me of the quote “there’s nothing to fear, but fear itself”.
Sometimes when we work up the courage to do something, it usually ends up less frightening than we imagined it would be.
I think we all have these fears lying somewhere inside, the only thing is that we should not them overpower and hamper our day to day life. We have to learn to live with some of these because we can’t overcome all of them.
This makes a lot of sense. I am am afraid of rejection and loss so I rarely challenge myself and get out of my comfort zone.
Being afraid is normal but we have to conquer our fears if we want to grow. This reminds me of the quote “there’s nothing to fear, but fear itself”.
Being able to face the fears are important. Fear is an enemy and just like with any other enemy it needs to be faced head on.
