The drumrolls of Fear:
Fear is the chill in your bones, as you knock on that door which is pivotal to your success in life.
Fear is the tiger which terrorizes your heart as you get closer to achieving your goal.
Fear is the jiteriness in your bone marrows when you try to confront a challenge like a man.
Fear can be positive given the right circumstances: then it can be a life – saver,preventing you from making rash and unreasonable decisions, controlling our risk-taking impulses by puling us away from the precipice.
FEAR is usually and habitually a joy – killer. It is an enemy of progress, a bedfellow schooled in the natural art of discouraging us from making progress, and an abstract force you feel but can never touch. It is an impalpable but devastating enemy that impedes all your progressive struggles.
It lives inside your mind.
It is a frightening phenomenon.
It is often a figment of your imagination, like a false reflection on a tarred road - a frightening illusion you must challenge vehemently in order to have a breakthrough
FEAR!
Where does your own fear live?
What triggers it in you?
What activates your fear?
You have to identify what applies to you because it varies from one person to another.
Ask yourself questions:
Why am I suddenly afraid?
What's the worst scenario that can happen to me if I open that door?
What do I lose or gain by walking away from that gate without opening it?
Many beautiful prospects have been shattered by FEAR .
Pin down your answers and tackle them head-on.
FEAR tells you that the task cannot be executed by you.
It argues that you are unqualified and unsuitable.
It insists that you are incompetent and inferior.
FEAR is the mother of failure.
