What am I afraid of??
Well firstly, I have to admit…walking alone…should I be scared of the person walking behind me? Sometimes, yes!
Through past experiences I have been forced to be so much more aware of my surroundings and this has instilled fear in me causing me to be afraid! I must admit though, in the society we live in, I don’t think it’s a bad thing!
Why am I afraid to speak up during meeting rooms filled with executives and “big bosses”? Am I insecure? Do I not know my full potential and what difference I could potentially make by speaking up? Am I afraid of shinning? This needs to come to an end!!
Sometimes people fear things they don’t know anything about, the fear of the unknown…I think this fare…
Is being afraid a bad thing?? No I don’t think so, but who decides what is the right or wrong thing to be afraid of?
My personal experiences have taught me that being afraid can make one more cautious but at the same time hold one back. I think we need to find a balance as it could have it’s benefits.
But who actually determines whether or not what we are afraid of is wrong? Doesn’t boil down to that individual to decide according to his or her own experiences???
