Per the definition of what someone has posted on Wikipedia - Fear is a feeling induced by perceived danger or threat that occurs in certain types of organisms, which causes a change in metabolic and organ functions and ultimately a change in behavior, such as fleeing, hiding, or freezing from perceived traumatic events.
In simple terms - Fear is what pushes someone to do certain acts that they never would have have thought they would do under certain circumstances.
Fear of hunger, fear of loss, fear of death, fear of failure, fear of god etc. Some have fear towards very basic things - water, fire, height which forces them to take a step back every time the need to come in contact with fear comes up.
The presence of these among many others cause people sometimes to take decisions which are irrational and in due course cause hurt to themselves and others. Once in, Fear makes people do stupid things, say stupid words, commit stupid acts. Fear is a good thing in certain ways only when it stops people from doing these stupid things.
There is no one easy way to fight fear; As the popular quote goes "You have nothing to fear but fear itself".
A great man once said " courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear".
Identify your fear, respect your fear, acknowledge and accept your fear, take necessary steps to tackle your fear, fight your fear even though it could be a constant struggle and one day you will overcome your fear. Confidence is the only boost ever needed to overcome fear.
Do not give in to fear, rise up, think thru and look fear in the eye. Fear will then be a thing of the past and you will be the conquerer.
We define fear in many ways but fear should not define us.
