Fear Less
Gavin Debecker has a book I didn't know about. How could this happen?
If you've read his Best Seller's The Gift of Fear and Protecting the Gift, then I don't need to explain any further.
If not, well hurry the hell up.
The Gift of Fear is to me one of the most brilliant books ever written.
You know that guy you worked with that always gave you the creeps. Yeah, it's explained. The stalker, explained. Why the hair rises up on the back of your neck, explained.
All in easy to understand language. Get the Audio book, read by Debecker himself, even better.
The bottom line is your intuition (Fear). It's always right and it's always got your best interest in mind. You've spent your whole life developing it and then society convinces you to ignore it.
In the followup, Protecting the Gift, Debecker goes more in depth on the subject of preparing and protecting your Family, especially Children and teenagers.
Now I see he has "Fear Less" published in 2002 and I didn't know it.
It appears it was probably rushed to press after 9/11 but is still a very valid book. In the two previous books there were chapters on the media and their obsession of fear that made people think they just had to stay tuned and couldn't do without their programs.
Key words like "Possible Links", Shocking New Details", "As Many As", "Fomer employees" are explained and you start to see a pathetic pattern with network news.
Read this https://www.gavindebecker.com/media_fear_tactics.cfm and I dare you to be able to watch any TV news show for very long after.
