How to overcome fears?

How to overcome fears? In one line, the answer to this question is by understanding what fears are! But don’t worry. I will elaborate on this one-line answer.

Do you know that darkness is just the absence of light? Similarly, fear is the result of the absence of faith. It could be faith in oneself, a mentor, or higher intelligence. To allay fear, one should build trust.

The only reason that leads to losing trust is clutching one’s past experiences. It is fascinating to understand how the human mind works. From the many occasions, it only remembers those when it was unsatisfied. These experiences transform into long-lasting memories. And these memories give birth to fear. Instead of thinking about such disappointing experiences, one should focus on the occasions when these experiences fulfilled the expectations.

If you really think about it, you will realize that our confidants have satisfied our demands numerous times. Sometimes we don’t even realize that they do so. But when they don’t satisfy our demands, we should believe there must be a reason behind that act that we may or may not realize. Keep the faith in your confidant and know whatever you are going through is happening to you to become a better version of yourself; it is for your good.

If this faith in your confidants becomes your memory, then you will never be afraid. Complete doubtless faith is the only and the best way to overcome fear.
