An Education in Fear

Tags: fear
Wrath of godly structure.
The ultimate in dichotomy.
Truest source of mental imprisonment in life.

It is power, laced with epic brilliance.
Intertwined union of far-reaching complexity.

Fear is king of traits. Paper, upon which the blueprint of survival is inked.
Fear is a master of emotion. It's strength is above the emotions of love, hate, happiness and sadness.


Fear destructs. Fear builds. It is masterpiece forging seams, holding life in place.

Not the thorns, nor the rose, but the life itself.


Merging Polarity of Fear

Fear is a product of duality. A force, blended in good and evil, positive and negative. It morphs in and out of instinct and trait with the fluidity of an ever-changing nebulous.

If everything good in this world were exposed as bright white light and evil as it's opposite counterpart in blackness, fear is the union where these two paths converge as a continuous stream of life.

We live life, parallel with fear. There are times when our thoughts or actions borrow from positive energy, other times from negative.

As one of the four primary traits of our being, and most powerful, a great deal of our actions can be traced back to fear.


An Education in Fear

Knowing that fear can create positive or negative emotions is the first step to using it as your advantage. These emotions lead to like actions as a response to internal or external stimuli. We use fear in both ways everyday, mostly unknowingly, much of the time negatively.

Educating yourself on fear is an essential step to a better, more fulfilling life. Through this education, you'll gain two positive outcomes. Most important is the process of uniting with fear, as opposed to fighting or running from it. The other is winning an important battle in the war against your own ignorance.

When lacking knowledge of what fear is and what it can do for you, human nature is to ride it's negative coattails into an oblivion of failure.

Fear is related to several traits and emotions. One of importance, is that it is a master of disguise. It doesn't spring forward in obvious fashion but many of our actions can be traced back to it. It is the puppet master, while our focus rests with the puppet. Too often, through our failures, we cannot figure to change the puppets actions.

Fear is a fundamental foundation of life in even the simplest creatures with a brain. If this foundation is poor, how will the life it is built upon go?

This is where we become a number in a nameless, faceless societal sea of everybody. It is why so many feel the rut and routine of being in a career they dislike or relationship they feel ensnared. Negative fear withheld in dull safety is chained to an existence despised. Subconscious self-hatred weeps into conscience mind, is channeled throughout hosted negative traits to emotion, then demonstrated in physical action.

Look to those around you. Your family, friends and neighbors. How many of them would you deem consistently successful, content, confident of any challenge afforded them? Truthfully, very few.

There are some, to be sure, who can positively channel fear to great benefit. However, a majority of our society lives in conflicting or shifting states of happiness and unhappiness. Trivial contentment short-lived, it is a facade of existence, devoid of genuine and consistent contentment.

Ignorance feeds into fear, fear feeds into negativity, failure results as no positive charge to act and the cycle begins anew. Choosing to ignore fear, than plead to share in it's power, is a death wish to any success you may dream.

Using Fear or Being Used

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? ~ Maryanne Williamson

A block to success many people face is the tendency to run as far from fear as possible. Or even worse, face it. Both sets of mind produce inadequate results. Fear must be sought out as your friend. It is the most powerful force on earth to propel you forward.

It isn't wise to "be tough", trying to overpower fear by extinguishing it. Nor should you allow it to spread through your body with dread before speaking to the crowd.

When dealing with fearful situations, many will succumb to one of these habits. When the no fear method of dealing with a situation is used, fear's eternal partner, ignorance enters the scene. This twosome channeled negatively often leads to disastrous results.

More often, flight will be the mode of dealing with fearful situations. If this is you, right now is a good time to grow a backbone. This isn't about taking careless chances, nor is it about carrying on as a doormat to society either. It is about you making changes in your life which leads to a better place than you are now.

If you suffer from depression, anxiety, Bi-Polar, ADD or any other mental ailment, society doesn't mind what your childhood was like. No one cares what you're dealing with now, either. We all have issues. Move on, it's your choice to do so. Whatever influenced your life or decisions in the past are now situational ghosts. They should be left to rest.

Make no mistake, life is a war between you and your decisions. Some decisions are frightening. But this is no reason for you to live imprisoned behind your limitations. Learn to channel fear as an ally. Developing courage and belief in yourself is the starting point. You must find it. If you cannot, you will die a failure and your life will be wasted.

When you find yourself facing fear, ask for it's company. Never reject it, it will always be there. Greet it warmly, honestly and directly as a friend. Ask it to charge you with it's electric flood, charge your emotions with it's power. Harness it's positive energy and you will see for the first time how powerful you are.

Fear is a steed, you're either riding it or being drug by your laces over rocks.

Begin slowly, as all things should be learned. Seek to master control of all the fears you harbor as enemy.

These words will not change your life. They will set your mind in the right place to change it.

Go, redesign yourself with new found power of rebirth.
