About Facing Fear
Facing Fear – structure fears clearly, act boldly Facing Fear helps you make inner hurdles tangible — with a clear method of Definition, Prevention, Repair, scenarios, and concrete next steps. This way you make better decisions, reduce rumination, and get into action. Why Facing Fear? - Clarity instead of catastrophizing: organize thoughts, assess risks, and see in black and white what truly matters. - Action instead of procrastination: set concrete steps — with due dates and reminders. - Reflect & learn: compare expectation vs. reality and close topics consciously. How it works - Define: What is it really about? Describe your fear/decision. - Prevent & Repair: What can you do to prevent problems — and what if something does go wrong? - Scenarios: Worst case, most likely course, and best case. - Costs of inaction: What happens if you change nothing (6/12/36 months)? - Next steps: Max. three concrete actions incl. date. - Assessment: Severity, likelihood, controllability — as a risk score (0–100). - Review: Set a review date. - Close out: Reflect at the end (“What actually happened?” and “What will I tell myself next time?”) and archive the entry. Highlights - Clear card view with risk chip and mini scale - Search, filter & sorting (Newest, Due date, Risk) - Due dates & reminders for your steps - Markdown-capable text input (including lists) - Quick duplication and share/export (Markdown for backups) - App lock (Face ID / Touch ID) for more privacy - Statistics dashboard: number of fears created, Ø score, trends over time, top topics, and much more - Close-out flow: expectation vs. outcome, learnings, archive Pro – unlock once, use everything With Facing Fear Pro you get: - Unlimited active entries - Markdown export for backups & sharing - Full statistics dashboard - App Lock (Face ID/Touch ID) - Close-out & reflection incl. archive view - Pay once, use forever.
