Fear

Confusion, financial uncertainty, job losses, violence – the present day is definitely a time of uncertainty and fear.
Most of the time when we fear something it is because it is unknown to us.  The only thing we should actually fear is fear itself.  Fear and the fear of fear are universal to all human beings. Most of us will first try to avoid our fears but the sooner we face our fears the sooner we will conquer our fears. 
But there also comes a point in everyone’s life when we are forced to face our fears. Here we do not have a choice when to face it or time to prepare for it.  Whether it is losing someone special your first day at school or work, retrenchment, all of us goes through different stages of life and are faced with all kinds of fears.
Fear is part of everyday life for everyone.  Do not let fear prevent you to live.  Today is the first day of the rest of your life!

  2. So true, Luckily we are in control of what drives us. To be drivven by fear will bring you no where. The aim is to find the balance between fear and greed, like our Management lector said.
