List of Human Fears

List of Phobias

Humans are born with only two fears: the fear of loud noises, and unexpected removal of support or falling! All other fears are learned or developed.

Most humans were created with five senses through which you are capable of experiencing the world: sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste. Unless you have chosen a position where you required a highly developed sense of taste or smell, the other three are going to be more important to you. For most people sight, hearing, and touch are their primary sources of experience.

  • Take a look at this
  • It is unclear
  • I see your point
  • See you soon!
  • Tell you loud & clear
  • Does not ring a bell
  • I hear what you are saying
  • Speak to you soon!
  • Get a grasp on what I am saying
  • I do not follow you
  • I am in touch with your idea
  • Keep in touch!
  • I want to communicate this to you
  • I am not sure
  • I understand
  • Good Bye!

Each human has a preferred modality i.e. a preferred way of representing and receiving information. Some humans think in pictures (visual); others in sounds (auditory); some humans go for how something feels (kinesthetic) and some humans even process information in term of smells (olfactory) or tastes (gustatory). There is also the modality referred to as Auditory Digital. One might declare that this modality incorporates anything outside of the above five. However, it is more than that, being a distinct approach to information that searches for logical, linear meaning.

Visual people look at the world through visual images and understand by making pictures of the meaning. They are often gazing over your head or off to one side; this is for the reason that they are literally looking at the pictures or movies they are creating while you are speaking.

Looks are very important to visual people. When dealing with them, remember the old saying: "a picture's worth a thousand words." These are the people who really do form first impressions, which last forever!

Auditory people listen carefully to what people have to say and accept it if it sounds accurate. They remember events and experiences by the songs they were listening to at the time, or the tone of voice the person used. Often they will tilt their heads in order to line their ear up to receive the sound most clearly (maybe they are not looking at you, though they are pointing their ear towards you!).

These are the people who happily spend hours on the phone. And if they want to check you out, they will ring their friends and get their feedback. They are in all probability the people who invented the phrase "what is not said is just as important as what is said."

Kinesthetic people favour getting a sense for things and people. They require experiencing the garment, squeezing the melon, brushing away dust and pet hairs, picks things up and play with them. They require to be doing. And they process information slower than the visual and auditory people, often looking down while you are presenting, they are literally getting a sense for what it is you are presenting.

Kinesthetic people require meeting you in person. Speaking over the phone does not do it for them, looking through the contract does not do it for them, they require to meet you, shake your hand and get a sense for who you are and what you are capable of doing for them.

Auditory Digital people require understanding why something is important; instructions have to make sense, everything is required to be ordered and logical. They not only enjoy though also require printed details and flow charts.

When you are presenting information to them, they will often take notes and will hone in on the details. For them the specifications of the car are vital and they will expect and probably have a degree of technical know-how. They are capable of appearing dispassionate and calculating and that is exactly what they are, in the most constructive sense!

What is fear?

Please consider these two explanations.
  1. First, fear is a perceived real, tangible experience for the humans that experience them, the origin of which you do not perceive that you are in control of, fear does occur for most humans, you simply wait for the precise circumstances to appear. You wait for the mugger; you wait for the rejection; you wait for the dis-ease to establish itself in your body.
  2. Second, fear is a construct of the human mind. It only exists for the reason that you allow it to exist. If you allow fear into existence, then there is the provability that you are capable of determination for it not to exist.

Which explanation of fear do you choose?

  2. you create it?

What is about a perceived fear that affects you so intensely?

What is the nature of the Universe?
It is either completely secure or completely perilous. To many, both statements may be considered as accurate. Choosing that it is completely safe eliminates the requirement for fear for the reason that if you are a divine being, your essence is not capable of having ever really been harmed, not anymore than the performer who is murdered or injured in a production. Choosing that it is completely perilous gives meaning that fear exists continuously; you are just not aware of it all of the time.

Who are you in the matter of your own physical existence?

One’s perceived fear has been considered to have the ability of being capable of either serving as a teacher for you, or one’s fear is perceived to be capable of being a burden that unrelentingly weighs you down. You have the capability of growth or self-imposed martyrdom.

The essence of your perceived fear is that it is not productive. Your perceived fear destroys; it does not create. Do things happen that harm you? Yes, of course they do. Ought to your lives be based on experiencing perceived fears for the reason of the possibility of harm? This is for you to decide. There is potential that harm will occur and there is the perceived fear that surrounds whether or not the harm will occur. It is really the "not knowing", the ignorance that creates the fear. Notice that once you know if you are going to be harmed (or not), the fear goes away. When in your mortal life has one of your perceived fear resulted in something constructive, something pleasing.

Attempt to eliminate fear from just one small aspect of your life by realising that it is the "not knowing" or the "ignorance" that creates your fear. By practicing this one simple concept, you will be capable of releasing fear from your life. Whatever is still in attendance after you have done this, maybe something that you choose to give your attention to?

This will not contain the fear that once surrounded it.
