“Fears are educated into us, and can, if we wish, be educated out.” That is, we are taught what to fear and sometimes this is a good thing. Look before you cross the road. Don’t run with a knife. But other times they are unresourceful as in ‘don’t do that you might hurt yourself. Get down from there you might fall’ These imply falling is dangerous even from a height that won’t do any damage and a fear of heights ensues. The fact that you MIGHT hurt yourself then creates a fear of things that may never happen but we can’t be too careful. The result – we don’t try things that could potentially fail or hurt us. Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.” However “Fear defeats more people than any other single thing in the world.”  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
