We are afraid of the wrong things




Many people are afraid of certain things because of fear and because of their mindset. There are so many opportunities that life throws at us and if we are going to be to afraid of failing or trying something new how will we ever know if it could work?


There are certain individuals who have become filled with fear because they are bombarded by a barrage of media messages. We read tragic newspaper headlines at the pay points of supermarkets on a daily basis. Talk shows seem to feature witnesses and victims of yet another deadly disease. Then there is also the radio and television programmes and news broadcasts that discuss the latest crimes that have been committed and disasters which occur all around the world.

Our fears are grossly exaggerated many a times. We need to realise that we only live once and if we are going to be crippled by fear we are definitely going to miss out on all the wonderful opportunities that life gives us. We need to strive to live a life that is fearless and enjoy life to the fullest. Without being afraid of the wrong things.

  1. I agree, we shouldn't let fear stop us from experiencing new opportunities. We need to be open to the endless possibilities we have out there.
