A few weeks back I posted about fear of numbers https://my.wealthyaffiliate.co...

It seems we are a fearful species. There are those that say the world will end at midnight tonight. They never specifically mention which time zone though. You are at liberty to check out Sept 23 predictions it's all over the internet!

Ever since mankind emerged from the darkness In a cave fears have been expressed.. Researchers have indicated that one of the most primal fears is fear of the darkness.

The use of fire was not always to provide warmth and light. Predators had a habit of striking after dark. Eventually the act was associated with darkness and darkness put-on the cloak of an aggressor.

It can also affect an aggressee! Some years back a psychological study was conducted in which players donned costumes of various colors. They were then let loose in a simulated warlike environment and aggressive campaign.

Some wore red, yellow and other colors. and were tagged to those appearances. While red put on a good show Black (the absence of all color) repeatedly outperformed in the war gaming.

Many have repeatedly posted about fear in our forum. We are fortunate in that WA among it's other benefits creates "fear insurance" to keep us in the road to meaningful endeavors and profitable returns!

As humans, we are wired to survive. That's why fear is a warning signal for us when our life is in danger so that we can fight, flight, or choose to thrive. If you choose to thrive, you can overcome fear by redirecting your thoughts and words to your thriving mindset and vocabulary.

I can't stand horror movies. Think the last one I saw was The Ring...no more. I remember one year around Halloween time I was downtown Gatlinburg TN. Not noticing the people watching me while I was looking into a window--I turned around and a big tall guy with a Jason from Friday the 13th mask was standing right next to me....I almost fainted!!

Good read again as usual!

All those YouTubes about Nibiru and the end of the world predictions are just for earning money from viewers, I think to make one myself, great way to make more money online

Letting fear work while you sleep. A great way to counter nightmares. If I remember right your version carried a scythe Loes!

You're definitely right about one thing: being a part of WA - in theory - should quell all fear because of its awesome platform. However, it only becomes reality when one never gives up and therefore succeeds. Another good read.

Is there a doom days on 23/9.? It is now 8.37am at my time zone. So I am safe. :)

Till this day. I can not watch the shining! I did not realize there was so many phobias. I knew there some.

Absolutely! Thanks great insight

The Shining is a classic. Thanks for sharing, Mike.

that image is iconic rog. I brought it up from memory!

Simply put fear is an obstacle, a hide block.when we have a kind of insurance then fear seems to disappear. if this is close to be right,then faith and believe can rid us of our fear.

If I were an insurance salesman, Id hate to see it abolished!

Fear is a common factor to intimidate and frighten people. Fear is also seen as a certain vulnerability. Fear of hurricanes, fear of darkness, fear of natural disasters, the list goes on and on. This fear is used by groups of people to market their products and services. Most of these products are a necessity, however some are useless and are being purchased out of fear in mind. I agree that darkness is inviting for a lot of shady characters to commit crimes of any kind. It is easier to disappear in the dark but new technology has made this almost impossible to vanish without a trace.

It is a prime factor I marketing leads. A whole industry has sprung up around it!
