How to overcome your own fears? It's not hard to do

It's not hard to do

Since ancient times, there has been a specific thing in human genetics, fear, we will be afraid of the dark night, death, unknown things, and even certain animals, such as snakes, tigers, etc. It is probably that the old ancestors were greatly injured by these things, so that these fear signals formed an instinctive response, which was passed down from generation to generation, and people can't get rid of it completely until now.

But there are still some people who dare to face them directly, but this does not mean that these people have no fear, but that they are afraid while facing up to their existence. These people have become the best in the crowd without exception. There is a heroic spirit of "no one has died since ancient times, and his heart will reflect his history". I think Wen Tianxiang must have been afraid at that time, but his unyielding integrity completely overcome his fear of death, and there are countless revolutionary martyrs. With lofty beliefs, to die calmly, those great feelings are enough to make people look up from the bottom of their hearts.

And how do we ordinary people overcome our fears? In fact, it is not difficult to say. I chatted with a snake catcher a long time ago and asked him why he was not afraid of such a cold animal as snakes, but he was afraid to death. He said that he was actually very timid at first, but after being bitten by a snake for the first time, he was not so afraid. If you are really bitten by a snake, you have generally accepted the fact that you have been hurt from the bottom of your heart, and you will either escape or choose to defeat the snake, and your fear of snakes will be less profound.

In the final analysis, our fear is still the self-protection awareness of the unknown and unpredictable things. When we are really in that thing, it changes from the unknown to the known, which greatly reduces the fear of it. For example, when we are on stage for the first time, go to a strange place for the first time, or even have our first love, we all have fear first, but when we have to accept them, we have actually overcome our fear.

When we haven't started to do something, we often have a deep fear of this unfamiliar thing, and those people with strong psychology will be afraid, but they will force themselves to bite the bullet and do it directly. When he did it, his fear slowly disappeared. At this time, the difference between the strong and the weak is reflected. The weak will flee far away because of fear. From then on, there will be a psychological shadow on this matter, and they will not dare to step into the restricted area for the rest of their lives. The weaker the mind. The more restricted areas in life, the lower the achievement in life.

In addition to these mentally strong people, there is another kind of person who is truly admirable. They look frail and even unable to protect themselves, but at the most critical time, even the natural enemy of mankind, death, cannot defeat them. I still remember Xiao Luotou, the youngest martyr in New China. He was only nine years old when he was killed by the enemy. When his body was found, his hands were tightly clasped in front of his chest, and inside he was holding a small pencil that was given to him by the teacher in prison. It was such a powerful belief to make a young body look so tall, it was truly embarrassing and tearful.

When you face anything, you don't think about running away, but you have to try no matter what the result is, then you have overcome your fear. With more and more accumulation, what you can do is also More and more, one day others will be deeply shocked by your power.
