Fear, the beast within

Fear has always been the strongest ally of the strong and the worst enemy of the weak. The history of world is amassed with people who, by virtue of their fearless attitude, have deliberately made the weaker (the people who are always afraid to challenge something or someone) follow them. This unfortunate behavior is everywhere to be found, the only reason why the society of today is divided into two categories-the strong and the weak. Fear of standing, fear of standing for your right, fear of standing up to the conviction are something that we are so used to nowadays…This fear factor has a significant contributing in giving our society an undesirable look. Our society is a society build on high human interference. Here most of children are dependable on their parents even some times after crossing their young hood. I have seen many of friends who are employed and are earning well but they are still not able to take their independent decisions. For the fear of ending up doing something wrong and for the fear of failure. This is not what should happen, There are many ways to drive away the beast within. Just take the courage and be ready to face failure. After all it has been rightly said, the only difference between one courageous and one fearful soldier is that the courageous soldier had the courage to withstand for some few more seconds.

Barriers to Communication

“You’re wrong. I m right"

This is one the most rigid stances you can have, because it leaves no room for understanding or appreciation for the other person's experience. The only outcome of this devastating attitude is the feeling of defensiveness and rigidity. Instead of taking a firm stand and doing everything to prove the other wrong, try to show how much you care. You will surely notice that they have started to share what they felt was important and what made them perform the act. The real fun is in trying to erase what's been said and use their words as a tool for deeper understanding. Be present with what has been said and notice how you react. Are you okay with it? do you need more explanation? Are you worried? Start being honest…you both will be the victors.
