We fear many things in the course of our life. We mostly fear things we can’t comprehend. Why you ask? Because it is easier to fear than to understand.
It is easier for us to say we are afraid of things than to take the time to study them. We rather live in self imposed fear than to take the time to figure out life’s mysteries.
Take the chance. Break the cycle. Study what you fear. Learn something new to become better.

I’ve heard an acronym for fear: False Evidence Acting Real. The things we imagine can cause more fear than things as they are. A little light can dissolve enormous shadows.
Thanks for the reminder.

I talked about anxiety/fear yesterday on my blog. The one step towards overcoming fear is asking why you fear whatever it is that you fear. As you said learning about it helps you overcome it. I think this really encouraged me as well as motivated me. Thank you. 🙂

Knowledge is key in learning. If we don’t continue to learn due to fear we limit ourselves to endless potential.

Great insight. Fear is something we all have inside us whether we acknowledge it or not. I always try to address the fear and then try to overcome it if I can. We can’t let fears hold us back from living.
