Self Help: How to Conquer Fear (part 1)


In self-help, most people do not conquer fear because they are ignorant about it. The first thing to understand is that all fears are not created equal. There are different types of fears.

For example, most human beings suffer from a deep-seated state of fear, lack, and incompleteness that is part of the human condition. This fear cannot be laid to rest simply by achieving goals. Only by attaining spiritual enlightenment can you free yourself from this fear.

Another example: there is a special type of fear called phobias, in which you suffer from an intense anxiety when confronted by a stimulus such as snakes, spiders, dogs, heights, elevators, flying, crowds, or public speaking.

Phobias can develop slowly or strike full-blown without prior warning. They are highly treatable, but you would not try to cure your phobia by attaining enlightenment. (If you suffer from a phobia, I do not recommend self-help for it. The most effective approaches to date for treating phobias are hypnosis and thought field therapy). You can see that different fears require different mental toughness strategies.

I'll talk to you again soon.

Your friend,
Lisa Brown
