Do you know how fear works?
We react in many ways towards it, we scream, we excape, we hide and very few times we fight back.
But what is fear? And do we always know that we are afraid, or what we are afraid of? We all know it's not really useful to be afraid, but most times we increase the fear rather than decreasing it.
Some seek to express it to others, some tame it within themselves. Some fight it back themselves, some expect others to resolve it. Some give up, some handle it wrongly. And some avoid it. Fear can be about anything yet all fear have only one purpose, and that is to stop you.
Please do not mix paranoia with fear, ever though there's a thin line between them and are interconvertible. Both are self created, and both are self remediated. But paranoia is most times baseless, and when the heart doesn't want to realise even when it knows what the truth and what is going to happen.
It's easy to let yourself go into the hands of fear. It was always easy to explain yourself. But the hard part is when you have to accept the truth that you are afraid and that what you are afraid of and how you can overcome it. The first step is to stop thinking a great deal about it. You hands will tremble, you heart will quiver, and you hands will turn cold, but what you have to know is, it's not as big as you think it is. And sometimes it's okay to accept that you have failed. Not sometimes actually, it's always right to accept, to know how weak you are. Infact who actually fail are thought who cannot accept their weakness.
So, that being said, fear is simple, but fight it is complex. Again if you figure it out how to fight it back, it's again simple. Simple and complex are just to sides of the same coin. Remember what stands between you and what you want is always yourself.
