克服恐懼

How experience reduces fear.

經歷如何減少恐懼。

I used to be very afraid of getting upin front of people and speaking. I would get sweaty palms and my stomach wouldbe so tied up that I wouldn't be able to eat. I would experience so muchtension in my neck and shoulders that I would almost always have a headache bythe time I had to speak or shortly thereafter.

我曾經非常害怕在人們面前講話。我會手心冒汗，肚子還會抽筋以至于都吃不下東西。我的脖子和肩膀還會一直有一股力量緊繃著，導致我在講話或者講話之后一會兒就會一陣頭疼。

Each time I spoke though, I noticed afterwards that it wasn't that bad. This is a trend I've noticed throughout mylife. Things I fear are never as bad in reality as I make them out to be in mymind.

每一次我當眾講話之后，我都會注意到其實它并沒有想得那樣糟糕。這是我在生活中已經注意到了的一種現象。我害怕的事情在現實中并沒有像我想象的那樣可怕。

So one element of training forfearlessness is to simply push ourselves to do things that we fear so that wehave more opportunities to develop the wisdom that the things we fear arealways worse in our minds than they are when we actually experience them.

所以鍛煉克服恐懼的一個方法是就讓自己去做我們所感到恐懼的事，這樣我們就會有更多的機會來提升自身的智慧，認識到我們所恐懼的事在想象中比在現實中是更加可怕的。
