During the nearly five decades
that I have occupied space on this planet (in this body), I have observed a number of situations where fear—not necessarily the physical but the mental type—has caused individuals to screw up in ways that they most likely would not have, were they not fearing the worst possible outcome of their decisions or actions.
In the video below, I provide scriptural, historical and film examples of how fear and confidence—contrasting ideologies—work against us and for us, respectively. Enjoy the video and feel free to either comment below or in the comments under the video in YouTube.
All the Best!
