Most people donā€™t die because of diseases but they die because of fears. But why do we get scared about anything?

Before knowing, why we have fear. Do we have to understand why we must not be scared?

Here is a short story on Fear

Once upon a time, there was a criminal who committed a crime recently (thatā€™s what a criminal does). After he was caught up, he was sent to the King for punishment.

The king told him he had a choice of two punishments.

He could be hung by a rope.

He could take what was behind the big, dark, scary, mysterious iron door.

The criminal was scared about the dark door. So, he quickly decided to hang by a rope.

On the day of punishment, as the noose was being slipped on him. He asked the King ā€œWhatā€™s there behind the dark doorā€.

King laughed and replied, ā€œItā€™s funny, I offer every criminal the same choice. But everyone takes the first optionā€.

He continued ā€œBy the way, behind the door was freedom. If you have taken the second option, you would be free from punishment till now.ā€

šŸ„°Moral

The criminal did two mistakes which we can take learnings from:

  1. He was not patient.
  2. He was scared.

If a criminal was patient, he would have chosen the second option. But the criminal got impatient because he was scared.
