Two major fears :
The two major fears we all develop are the fear of failure or loss and the fear of criticism or rejection . These two fears sometimes destroy our whole life. Specially when you get criticism and rejection from those who are really special for you , or you did a lot for them .
Physical and psychological fears :
There are two types of fear. When you do something and feel fear about that particular thing or act you want to do , then you have to know that there are two types of fear physical fear and psychological fear , so you have to plan for physical fear and leave psychological fear . you must know that there is no fear that can't be conquered.
What you’re afraid of and how you act when you’re afraid of something can vary per person. You can learn to feel less fearful and to cope with fear so that it doesn’t stop you from living.
Fear can be divided into two responses:
biochemical and emotional.
The biochemical response is universal, while the emotional response is highly individual.
What is anxiety?
Anxiety is a word often used by health professionals when they’re describing persistent fear.
We use the word anxiety for some types of fear that are usually to do with the thought of a threat or something going wrong in the future, rather than right now.
Duration of fear and anxiety :
Fear and anxiety can last for a short time and then pass, but they can also last much longer and you can get stuck with them .
What is phobia?
A Phobia is an extreme fear of a particular animal, thing, place or situation. People with phobias have an overwhelming need to avoid any contact with the specific cause of the anxiety or fear.
The thought of coming into contact with the cause of the phobia makes you anxious or panicky.
Fear is a healthy emotion :
Fear is an unavoidable fact of the human experience. While fear sounds bad, but it can actually be used as a positive emotion.
Fear uses consequences to drive people into action. Like fear of getting fired, serves you as a way to keep you productively moving towards specific goals, or tasks .

| Other side of every fear is FREEDOM. |
Fear can create strong signals of response when we’re in emergencies ,like if we are caught in a fire or are being attacked , in this situation fear is a natural response to a threat. If in this way we see fear (physical fear ) it is actually healthy and helpful. Because through this awareness (fear) you can plan to deal the situation which is causing fear .
All psychological fears, like facing public, fear of defeat in something, fear of future, fear of criticism or rejection, all these types of fears can be conquered through your willpower and confidence.
