“Cowards die many deaths,” goes the proverb. “The brave die but once.” True it is that each of us has only one life—but how many of us ‘die a thousand deaths’ in fear and nervousness!
Freedom from fear is achieved through perseverance, tenacity and sheer willpower. Have you heard about the teacher who asked the smartest boy in class, “Tell me Hari, what is the difference between perseverance and obstinacy?”
The clever lad replied, “One is a strong will, and the other is a strong won’t.”
Only they can conquer fear, who have willed themselves to do so! Only they can conquer fear, who have willed themselves to do so!
We must never underestimate mind-power, the power of the will. Freedom from fear—as well as health, happiness and harmony—depend in thought-habits. Truly has it been said that even happiness is the product of habitual right-thinking.
