A Book About Fear!!

Fear is a natural intuition of every living being. It is very important for their survival. Without fear the ability to survive will be gone, specially for animals in the wild. Since human is actually also an animal, fear is also a natural instinct that will be triggered in situations whereby our sensors detects potential danger. Gavin de Becker’s book “The Gift of Fear” is a great book for us to understand fear and utilize it to live a better life. He emphasizes that fear is not something to be feared, but we must embrace it as a GIFT and use it for our own good and survival. Fear is different from worry, we need to use and acknowledge fear, but we need to remove the worry so we can live a more worry-free life. Imagine if we always have constant worry, we will not be able to actually life a full live. An exceptionally great book for EVERYONE!!
