Fear can be shown in diverse ways. It can come and go,
or it can consume us whole, in a pit of never feeling able to do something again. But not only in people, animals experience fear too, like a hurt squirrel, scared it won't see it’s family again. In this presentation, I will be discussing how fear can be a barrier to our goals, while it can also have benefits.
Feeling fear is common, but too much fear can be a
problem. Letting yourself be blocked off from things you love because of fear is not healthy, you don’t know what would happen until you try. That’s why life is all about risks, chances and the decisions you make throughout.
Fear can interrupt processes in our brains that allow
us to regulate emotions, read non-verbal cues and other information presented to us, reflect before acting, and act ethically.
Meanwhile, fear can stop us from getting hurt in many
ways: Like going out at night when you’re not supposed to because of some funny feeling in your stomach. The next morning you find out there was a murder that night. Fear is like a protector for us and without it, I’m sure we’d be acting like soldiers. But even then, soldiers get scared too.
Some fears you can get over in a short amount of time
because you have to.
For an example; When I came into this school for the
first time, A million thoughts ran through my head like, “Would the students here like me?” "Would they be nice?” “What if they neglect me and forget I exist?” I was so scared; my heart was beating out my chest. But when I entered my first class... it wasn’t bad... they were so nice to me, though I wasn’t a confident speaker. But even though people think I’m weird in some ways, I managed to make myself comfortable in this school. That’s my example of fear but the only difference is that I didn’t let it take over. I managed to get over it... mostly.
And lastly, an animal. A little dog cowering in the
corner, his tail tucked between his legs. His ears were pinned back, and his body trembled with fear as the loud thunder rumbled outside. He longed for his owner to come and comfort him, to make him feel safe and protected from the scary storm, but his owner was sleeping... so he decided to be brave and go up to his owner’s room to feel the warmth with his loved one, so he could sleep peacefully.
Fear can have both positive and negative effects on our
lives, and it is important to find a balance between facing our fears and protecting ourselves.
So now, I want you to tell me...: What’s your fear?
