It's not that scary after all

When it comes to fear, your mind is incredibly good at blowing this emotion out of proportion.

That is a natural reaction though.
Your mind wants to keep you safe by scaring you off things.
Making you do things that you are used to, and comfortable with.

And the majority of us are happy to live with that.
Even if it means you do things that you don't enjoy, every day, for years and years.

Truth is though, most things are not that scary.

You know what's scary?
It's when your primary school classmate enters the classroom with a bloodied cotton wool in his mouth, grimacing in pain, and then telling you that it's your turn next to visit the dentist.

THAT'S scary.

So unless you come across something of the same scare magnitude, stop shying away from your fears. Conquer it!

The conquered land is usually where you want to be.
