'The Power Of Fear'

I Was cutting a hole in the sole
of a sandal I was making one day, When I felt the knife cut my finger,
The sensation hit my brain
And I
immediately flung both the knife
And the sole and pressed
My hand over the cut.

My brain was screaming pain
And the stain of blood on the knife didn't help as I felt I had sliced off
My finger.
After awhile, I released the finger, looked at it and realised that the cut wasn't deep and it wasn't even bleeding,
Then it dawned on me.

'it wasn't the sensation of pain I felt, NO, it was fear which paralysed me at that moment, preventing me from thinking straight and accessing the situation rightly at that moment'.

You know, life is similar to that incident.
When we are faced with the situations and challenges of life,
we allow fear to turn the little heap of sand into a mountain,
get so depressed and panicky,
That we can't access the situation rightly to arrive at the best solution
And unlike my cut that I had all the time to get over my fear and access it,
Life challenges doesn't give you all the time.

Learn to convert your fears into a drive,
Don't let it control you but rather aggressively control your thoughts and fears
And make something positive out of it.
