Facing your fears robs them of their power

About This Quote

Facing your fears robs them of their power. When you are afraid, it is often the thoughts of fear that give it power over you. By facing your fears head on, they lose their power over you. This means that if you are afraid to do something, and then do it anyway, you will not be afraid anymore. Facing your fears like this makes them powerless over you and keeps you from becoming a slave to them.
