    As human, our thought processes, actions and reactions, outcomes and the psychological effects of our fear experiences influence our beliefs, lifestyles and other factors. These life changing experiences and factors determine our behaviour in communication and interaction with our environment, whether logial or illogical. As we grow, learn and develop our own environment, we choose to avoid, confront, ignore or learn to live with our fears. The most intriguing part of it is that we voluntarily believe that our fear is a major problem and a hindrance to us making our goals attainable. We become completely powerful when we are able to put our fear reactions in context, reflect on our reactions which are birthed from situations of perceived fear, and dissect the often unrecognised counter-reactions that make our situation affect our actions.
