Are decisions fear based?
It's in our language;e.g. "I drove fast because I was afraid I'd miss you" what is that motivates peoples decisions? Fear of failure? Fear of making a bad decisions? And that same fear works in the opposite direction as well. Fear of making bad decisions etc.
Really think about it: Are all decisions fear based?
You are actually correct for most people on many things. The very reason most people do not become phenomenally successful is often because of fear.
I suggest that you get a copy of "Think & Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill. The text is in the Public Domain so you can actually download it for free. My understanding is that this is one of the all time best selling "self help" books out there (over 100 million copies in many languages). It's still highly relevant.
Go to the last Chapter and then the section on "How to Outwit the Six Ghost of Fear" and read just that, as a start. I suspect it will open your eyes a lot... and show you how to change things.
Now the entire book is also of great value if you can understand it. It was originally published in 1937, and the culture and language use has changed since then. Some is easy to recognize and adjust (in those days Men worked and provided for the family, and made up over 97% of the workforce - the the book uses male terminology as it is focused on how to help men improve their income (and life). It's equally applicable to females (and I believe some of his later books became more gender neutral). Other word usage changes may not be so easily recognized and translated to its modern equivalent.
I wish you the best,
Some argue that everything we do is motivated by wanting to get laid.
I do not believe so. I also do not think all decisions are fear based. I mean for each choice we make, there is an opportunity cost but ti doesn't really spell fear.
