WHAT TYPE OF FEAR DO YOU HAVE AND HOW BEST DO YOU TACKLE CHALLENGES?
Made with canva app
While scrolling through the internet today, I saw a quote having two definitions of FEAR from their acronym, the first one stated:
FORGET EVERYTHING AND RUN
Hmm, I looked at this and I was laughing because it fits so well and is funny. Just imagine seeing a tiger on a narrow road when you are alone. What do you do, you show an expression of FEAR, which is to Forget everything and Run.

Now, you see what I meant by it fitting so well to the context. The fact that we see danger ahead and retreat does not make one a coward but actually smart enough to know when there is a dead end.
That's the best context for this definition of fear.
I am sure by now, you would be thinking; what about the second acronym I found on the internet. So, just chill a little.

The second acronym seems a little different from the first but this time has a very interesting meaning that relates to life itself. it stated:
I actually love this acronym of fear, and if people were to be asked what type of fear they have, I am sure many would choose this acronym because it shows signs of bravery. Unlike the other which looks like one is a coward for not being brave.

Talking about being brave, What makes a brave man isn't the absence of fear but the ability to face it. A brave man should also know when to retreat if not, I don't call him brave but foolish to not realize when he needs time to build himself to fight another day.

Never weigh too much on yourself when you face life challenges. Most times situations in life might seem too hard for you but at this point, you may need to face it, face those challenges because no challenge is greater than you. If you believe, no matter the challenge, they are only there to make you stronger. It is okay to be afraid of the outcome but let that fear push you to arise above them.

This is how I visualize the second acronym of FEAR, being able to face those challenges that weigh heavily on us. That may seem difficult to phase through but only limited to our mindset and how likely we take it.

This is so thought provoking and really good words to think on. The two fears are required if one wants to be successful. Like you said the ability for us to know when to apply these acronyms, will make life much easier for us.
Just like the words of Jude Blume,
"Each of us must confront our own fears, must come face to face with them. How we handle our fears will determine where we go with the rest of our lives. To experience adventure or to be limited by the fear of it."
So it's very obvious that fear must come but the ability for us to confront them with either of these ways you've stated, will make us either a coward or a hero.
This quote explains everything I said in this post. Thanks for the addition. I really appreciate it.
I'm glad you find it worthy 😉. It was a pleasure reading through and leaving my contribution.
Fear is a natural phenomenon, it exceeds beyond physical appearance and mental capacity.
"We Retreat to fight another day"
Is a popular qoute in the twilight saga. It is mostly considered a move for the cowards. There is a saying " not all battles are won by strength but by the ability to strategize and make smart moves". In some situations in life you must learn how to back down and observe the situation before moving ahead. It is a strategy called losing to win. Know when to apply such strategy can be difficult at times.
People face all kinds of fears in life, some fears are highly ridiculous. I have a cousin who is highly traumatized by the mere sight of a chicken, it took her years before she could over come it. If there is something have learnt from facing fears is that, people need to take their time in processing and finding out what there true fears are and while they do that, there is a need for them to figure out which solution is best suited for their fears, no one should compare themselves with others because fears are unique to a person, what works for you might not work for others vice versa.
Brain Tracy qoute, fears are a living components of human psychological structure, it grows the more we dwell in self concealment.
I always love the way you discuss the most crucial aspect of human life, as a blogger, you are initiating and implementing the social responsibility theory of the media.
Nice Writing, it is highly educative and informational.
Lol. Your cousin was afraid of chicken 😹😹😹. I understand, I have phobia for cockroaches but doesn’t mean I don’t kill them. I push away my fear and do the needful.
Man where you dey see all these quotes. You are too good sincerely! You are the advanced version of me.
Fear has no boundaries oo, a whole boss like u is terrified of cockroaches. Make sure we don't meet, I might have to chase u with cockroach to test this theory 😅😅.
Bro advance you as how, you know I am always following your foot steps.
If there is anything I'm doing correctly is all thanks to your guidance.
Funny thing is, I would not run. But I am irritated when they touch me and at the sight of them.
I understand the feeling, in my own case it is spiders. Those creature have caused a lot of embarrassment.
Rise >> Run
Facing your fears will only make you stronger. 🔥🔥
Exactly!👌
Otherwise, you just keep living below your capabilities. 🤌🤝
My man!!! I know you to be a fearless man who is ready to rise above all fears and challenges. Truly you get stronger when you face your fears.
It's the forget and run gif for me😆😄😅
People, including myself, often misunderstand when to RUN and when to RISE.
The understanding of these two types of fear is a determining factor of one's victory in some cases 🤌. We retreat to fight another day isn't cowardliness like you have stated. It is going back to rebuild one's strategy while one still can; this is the absolute intelligent move to make.🤝
Definitely, I'd run as far as I can at the moment I sight a tiger 😳; It is quite analogous to retreating when faced with challenges that one is inadequately equipped for. And to retreat is simply to prepare or re-strategize. J🪖
And when the time comes to stand, I should summon the courage to face it lest I fall. And courage, met with preparedness is an absolute beautiful mix. .💪💪
Nice one, brother!
Yeah exactly, restrategizing. One needs to rebuild and see what works best than keep up without no results.
Hmm courage mixed with preparedness. Really felt this word.
I smell a post on this coming from you.😅😂
Sometimes l think hiding your fears is one great way of overcoming them.
If you hide them, when would one have the time to confront them. So it best to not hide but face them.
Thanks dear
Well, the situation determines the FEAR we should exhibit I guess.
A popular FEAR acronym but you explained it in a well detailed way
Great post 👍
Exactly... It depends on the situation. If it's bigger than your capabilities it is okay to retreat and restrategize.
Well, I will rather face everything and rise than running away from my fear.
Life challenges and experience has thought me never to give up nor run away from whatever is facing me rather approach the situation squarely until I achieve result .
Funny thing is that it is okay to retreat. It only depends on the situation of things. Most times you only may need to retreat and change your approach to things..

They literally have attempeted my murder and are trying to kill me with V2K and RNM. Five years this has been happening to me, it started here, around people that are still here. Homeland security has done nothing at all, they are not here to protect us. Dont we pay them to stop shit like this? The NSA, CIA, FBI, Police and our Government has done nothing. Just like they did with the Havana Syndrome, nothing. Patriot Act my ass. The American government is completely incompetent. The NSA should be taken over by the military and contained Immediately for investigation. I bet we can get to the sources of V2K and RNM then. https://ecency.com/fyrstikken/@fairandbalanced/i-am-the-only-motherfucker-on-the-internet-pointing-to-a-direct-source-for-voice-to-skull-electronic-terrorism ..... https://ecency.com/gangstalking/@acousticpulses/electronic-terrorism-and-gaslighting--if-you-downvote-this-post-you-are-part-of-the-problem
Fear! Face every challenge and rise. Hmm! There are some challenges that aren't worth facing like you rightly said. This is why we also have the saying, "He who fights and runs, lives to fight another day".
No doubt challenges makes us stronger and braver but also we should know that it is alright to fear, to be afraid. Fear gives us a reason to take some steps back and reanalyze the situation and look for better ways of handling it.
I enjoyed reading this.
Rise definitely. First, it's important to have or develop a winning mindset so when challenges face up, you have already overcome them. Challenges cone to test the calibre of the kind of person you are and how you face it is a reflection of the inner workings of your mind. For me, it's a win win situation. I look at it, come up with solutions and apply them. For some challenges, I simply ignore them because giving them attention will only lead to stress or frustration. Thanks for sharing sir.
Hmm... Developing a winning mindset towards challenges. Yeah, you are right that they come as a test and it is important to take a proper look at it before jumping on it as well.
Well said sir. 👏
Fear is actually something that can serve as a push to get us closer to our goals or move us away from them. Depending on the position we have regarding fear will be our final result according to some adversity, success or failure, are only 2 facets that start from that point.
Excellent contribution as always @starstrings01 !
