Lessons Learned from Life The consequences of fear


Fear is one of the everyday phenomenons we do encounter in life. No one can boost of never encountering fear in any of its many facets at one point in life. The source of the fear might me misty and not clearly understood but we still encounter it.

When we encounter fear, there are two things involved; you could yield to fear or the fear yields to you. What's it gonna be?


Some years ago I used to fear failing in some subjects in school and underperforming and it so happened all my fears were confirmed. What I feared failing I failed and as a consequence I underperformed. I also feared loosing some close friends and behold I did loss them. I am certain you would have your own experiences with fear which when you feared something was to happen that thing eventually happened. It sucks right?

I was tired of being spellbound and manipulated by fear so I had to break loose and free. It is said the first step in conquering fear is to find out the origin and kill it. Just like unwanted grass the best way to deal with it is to dig out the roots. The sources of my fears was the discomfort in not being in the top positions in class and insecurity when dealing with my close friends. I had to change my mindset from “not wanting “to be out of the top spots in class to “wanting” to be in the top positions in class, and from “not wanting “ to loose my friends “wanting” to keep my friends. Simply put I had to focus on the positive aspects rather than the negative aspects of all my situations and it paid off. Your fears must be mastered before you achieve anything worthwhile. We all have goals in life and you know as much as I know that we would not make it if we yield to fear but we gonna make it big if fear yields to us. For in the state of fear, most of what you think of is negativity.


Fear is a generous phenomenon, if you fear something is going to happen, fear grants you that. So if you must fear, fear that the best rather than the worst is going to happen.

You are a born conqueror, go conquer your fears!!

Self-Control, your way out of misery.

It is better to win control over yourself than to win control over nations. Those are the words of the wise King Solomon in regards to self-control. Self-control is that guiding force which directs our actions towards destructive or constructive aims. Majority of man’s grief comes about through lack of self-control. There is no one today known as “great” who does not have a mastery of self and that is what makes them the bosses and boss ladies. To develop and master the habit of self-control, we have to master our thoughts for self-control is principally a matter of thought-control. We are the products of our very own thoughts. When you decide that goodness and greatness run the production line in your mind, the results manifested in you are goodness and greatness. However, I am afraid to say the same is true with mediocrity and frustration. The beginning of our journey to develop and master the habit of self-control would be marked by the mastery of thre

Failure, Your Passport to Success

Everyday in life, from the moment when we are born to the moment when we cease living or existing, we do encounter various setbacks. Everyone does, there is no exception to that. Failure, temporal defeat and challenges are an integral part of our lives which either make or break us. But few people know know that every form of adversity or failure brings with it the seed of an equivalent advantage. No wonder they say "the tougher the battle, the bigger the victory." that is so because as large as you see your adversity to be, within it lies a seed of advantage with potential of being as bigger as the adversity or even bigger depending what you make of it. It is said, the strong one is not the one who does not fall down,  but the strong one is the one who stands up after falling down. If you don't fall down, it is most probable you are already down. We all obey the law of gravity. Had it been people were void of the ignorance and had a deeper understanding of failure t
