FEAR- You Have To Master It

It gives some a constant and gnawing pain in the pit of the
stomach.

Others drink more or smoke more because of it.

It causes some people to be right on the edge of success and then
sabotage their own efforts.

It's killed more dreams and ruined more careers than all other
causes combined.

FEAR may be the worst enemy of the human species.  And it's been
with us since the beginning.  The Book of Genesis speaks of fear
and it appears throughout the Bible, Torah and Koran.  Who can
forget the classic line from the Old Testament that was delivered
by Job when he said, "That which I feared most has come upon me."

In fact, it seems the older we get the more prone we are to
allowing fear to control our lives.

And right now, with the worst financial crisis of our lifetime
(brought on in large part by FEAR) casting its shadow to every
corner of the world, fear is rearing its ugly head in more people's
lives than ever.

To defeat fear all you have to do is to LEARN how to manage it -
how to master it. Zig Ziglar once said that "courage is not the absence 
of fear, it's the mastery of it."
