“The constant assertion of belief is an indication of fear”

Jiddu Krishnamurti

Simplified Meaning:

When people keep saying what they believe over and over, it often means they are scared. Think about a person who always talks about how brave they are. If they constantly tell everyone they're not afraid, it might actually show they are really scared inside. This kind of behavior can be seen in real life when someone tries too hard to convince others and themselves about their strength or confidence. For instance, imagine a student who keeps telling their friends they are sure they will pass an exam. If they repeat it many times, it might mean they are actually worried about failing. To apply this wisdom to life, try to notice if you're repeating something because you're scared of the opposite being true. Instead of just saying it, face your fear and work on feeling more secure without needing to constantly assert it to others. This way, you can become truly confident and less driven by fear.
