TYPES OF FEAR 
James got a new job in Bengaluru, the Silicon City of India. To live close to the infotech company was an expensive proposition. So, he rented an apartment that needed him to travel by bus every day. His new home was very comfortable, except for one issue — a bulldog! Every day, when he got off the bus, a bulldog near the bus stop would go after him. As he would run for his life, the fierce dog would chase him. He feared that one day, the dog will grab him and bite him. The fear of the dog-bite, being hospitalized, losing his job and even death, preoccupied his mind all day. Not only did he discuss his fears in his office, but he also dreamt of them. He was lucky to have a friend in his office who was very positive. The friend would tell him something courageous every day – “Do the things you fear, and the fear will disappear!” “F E A R is False Expectations Appearing Real!” “Kill your fear before the fear kills you!”
James decided to change his paradigm. He couldn’t let the fear of the bulldog destroy his peace. The next day, when the bulldog started chasing him, he did not panic. He had hidden a metal rod under his jacket. He turned and holding the rod with both hands confronted the dog with a Kung Fu style scream. But he was frightened! As the dog jumped at him with its huge mouth open, ready to bite, James was shocked! He saw that the bulldog had no teeth! Immediately, holding the staff in one hand, he started chasing the bulldog.
