*Types Of Fears (cont.)*

Yesterday we had explained some of the common types of fear human beings
suffer from. Let us look at some more:

** Failure* - some people avoid doing something, or choose not to act,
because their fear of failure weakens initiative and confidence.

** Authority* - this can be fear of a parent, of a boss, even of God.
Because authority has often been misused, in order to control and suppress
people, it is a normal result that fear, in the form of suspicion and
mistrust, has become such a negative force, both personally and
collectively, in society.

There are many reasons for these types of fear, but the main ones include:

** Past experiences*, which brought disappointment, insecurity, or wariness
(caution).

** Lack of faith* in one's self and in others.

** The need for approval*, to belong, or to be accepted.

** The habit of seeing things negatively.*
