Techniques and strategies to overcome fears

One technique to overcome fears is to practice stoicism, which involves focusing on what you can control in a situation rather than stressing over things beyond your control. By accepting that some things are out of your control, you can direct your energy towards the controllable aspects and find ways to work through any situation. The Stoics also believed in premeditation of evils, where you visualize worst-case scenarios to prevent or decrease the chances of them happening. This helps you take action and mitigate the risks associated with your fears.
