Fear is a feeling of accumulated negative thoughts that have become mental monsters.
Fear is a form of psychological infection, it stops people from capitalizing on opportunities, wears out physical vitality, makes people sick, shortens life, closes your mouth when you want to speak, causes uncertainty steals confidence – it is the enemy of success.
However, sometimes people are afraid, sometimes this “spirit of fear” overcomes them, and to overcome it one needs to trust in God completely.
Shyness is a form of fear towards others a way of acting towards others in a reserved and measured way. Shy people tend to be less outgoing and more inclined to be thinkers and dreamers. They are simply less inclined to take risks with talking to other people due to fear of rejection or of looking silly and out of place. They tend to carefully watch for reactions from others on how they are doing.
The are two types of fear, the fear of the Lord which is beneficial and the second which is disastrous and should be overcame.
The fear of the Lord is a total acknowledgement of all that God is or has done. Fear of the Lord brings with it many blessings and benefits. It is the beginning of wisdom and leads to good understanding Psalm 111:10, it also leads to life, peace, contentment and is the fountain of life Proverbs 14l:27.
It is possible to overcome fear or shyness and the first step is to acknowledge it, hate it and take actions against it.
“Ask yourself what kind of action can I take to conquer my fear, then take the action.”
