YOUR FEAR MY FEAR

Most of the time, our brain is designed to protect us from doing things!

Every time when I share about Fear, people will start to ask, “Why are we in Fear?” “Can we be fearless?” “How can we overcome Fear?”

Who is not in fear? There must be something that we fear.

Let’s talk about attending to a social event, a networking event. When I was younger (*wink*), I used to feel very afraid to attend to any event, i.e. wedding, birthdays, seminars, etc. Although most of the time I will have friends or associates attending to the same event; I just don’t feel comfortable talking to strangers and I hate those questions that I always get…

As I walked into a room, I can sense that people will ask me a lot of questions *laughs*. I pre-conditioned my mind and I was right, every time I go to any event, I ended up being questioned by new friends. And I started to question myself … (check out my own questions)

• Am I good enough?
• Do I dress appropriately?
• Will I be ignored?
• Are people interested with what I say?
• What jokes should I crack?
• Do I look stupid?
• What if someone ask me something that I don’t know the answer?
• What if the other person is not responding to my questions?

In fact, no one cares. Everyone has the same fear, perhaps some even worse. We do not know what other people would think about us. They may not be judging us at all but it’s our brain that keeps playing games with us.

Now, I will go to any event, I’ll make myself at ease and enjoy the moment. There are still times that I feel a little uncomfortable but I believe in one thing: – I am invited, so I should enjoy and learn something from the event and get to know more people from different sides of the world.

Fear NO MORE!
