Explain and identify what category it fits under according to the chart on the hyperdoc. en-us 2017-03-09 18:01:16 UTC 2025-09-26 16:42:59 UTC hello@padlet.com kpotts4 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/159072050 1. I think fear is one of the greatest motivators.  People make decisions based on how they feel about different situations and what will happen to them.  For instance, if a person is afraid of public speaking, he or she might not show up to school that day because the person is so frightened.  Fear also causes people to make bad decisions because it causes people to focus on on themselves and not others.
2. My biggest fear is losing someone I love. This would be under the personal future category.]]> 2017-03-09 18:03:46 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/159072050 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162774315

For example the government. Laws are in place to keep people in line, if you break the law you will be punished accordingly. In conclusion, people fear the consequences so they don't break the law. Yes I agree fear is one of the greatest motivator in human behavior. ]]> 2017-03-27 12:09:53 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162775862 163543 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162776902 1.

2. My greatest fear is death, but fear can be helpful in deadly situations. Fear provides caution.]]> 2017-03-27 12:16:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162778021 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162778082 Fear can make people do irrational things to try and get rid of the fear. For example, if someone is afraid of the judgement of others they will not be as confident with a lot of things they do. ]]> 2017-03-27 12:16:58 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162778082 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162778156 1) I believe that fear is the greatest motivator in human behavior, because people change what they do based on what they are afraid of.
2) My biggest fear is drowning. This goes under personal anxiety. ]]> 2017-03-27 12:17:08 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162778156 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162778625 I think fear is a big factor in a persons actions. It can prevent or make someone do something they would not have originally done. My fear is not knowing if I am making the right choice for my future. This falls under the personal future category.]]> 2017-03-27 12:18:38 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162778625 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162779434 1. I do not think fear is the greatest motivator of human behavior. Although I do think it is the most common. This is because I believe there are more powerful motivators than fear. 
2. My greatest fear is having an injury that would limit me to do the things I enjoy in life. This falls under personal future.]]> 2017-03-27 12:20:52 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162779434 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162779492 I would disagree that fear is the greatest motivator of human behavior. There are all different motivations for all different people like success, love, etc., not just fear. My greatest fear would have to be dying.  ]]> 2017-03-27 12:21:03 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162779492 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162781695 1. I think people's goals for the future are the biggest motivators. If people have plans for the future and things they want to achieve, then they will be motivated to do so. I believe people should look forward to the future and not look back in fear. One of my greatest fears is losing someone I love.]]> 2017-03-27 12:26:56 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162781695 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162781731 1. I believe that fear is a motivator of human behavior in everyday life but not necessarily the greatest one. We are not always faced with fear in our everyday life so are choices, thoughts and actions may not be affected by that. This doesen´t mean however that people don´t act out of fear either. 
2. My greatest fear is being in a major natural disaster such as an earthquake, tsunami etc. This falls under natural disaster category. ]]> 2017-03-27 12:27:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162781731 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162782457 1) I believe that fear is plays a large role in our daily lives even though we may not realize it. For example, throughout the day, we do things that make us comfortable and whenever we leave our individual comfort zones, I believe, brings on some sort of fear and possible self consciousness.
2) One of my biggest fear would be public fears and this would fall under the personal anxiety category.]]> 2017-03-27 12:29:11 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162782457 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162782735 Fear is huge motivator especially in relation to human behavior. For example, someone's fear of failure may help them succeed as it increases their motivation to be successful. My greatest fear is of heights. This fits under the personal anxieties category along with tight spaces and public speaking. ]]> 2017-03-27 12:30:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162782735 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162783705 1) I think that fear is a big motivator for human behavior. A fear of something, whether material, or immaterial may help the individual come out of it by going deep into that fear. If they face that fear, the person may get used to that fear and sooner or later, get over that fear. 

2)My biggest fear would be the dark. It makes my whole body shake and I'll start to hyperventilate. ]]> 2017-03-27 12:32:44 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162783705 brandon_farish1 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/162966313 1. I think that fear is one of societies greatest motivators. It causes people to act differently then how they may want too. A Example would be gambling. Many students may not realize but they fear what others may think of them. They decide not to do things that could embarrass them. Instead they do something rather to impress someone. This fear is fear of what other peer may think of them.

2. My biggest fear is speaking in front of a large crowd. This fear goes under personal anxiety.

For example I am afraid of bandages and haven't used them for over a few years now even in times i needed to.

]]> 2017-03-28 11:40:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/163081283 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/163085271 1. I do believe that fear is the greatest motivator of human behavior because our emotions and our decisions are very closely related. When we are afraid of something, we are going to do whatever we can to get ourselves out of the situation. This situation could be anything from something that takes your out of your comfort zone throughout the day or it could be you encountering your biggest fear. 
2. My biggest fear identifies under the crime category. It freaks me out to think about harm coming to me or my family and friends which is why it scares me more than anything else. ]]> 2017-03-28 11:57:56 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/163085271 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/163089554 I do not think fear is the greatest motivator for humans. It can affect people in certain situations but for the most part it is not a constant factor. My biggest fear is heights and it goes under the personal anxieties category.]]> 2017-03-28 12:14:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/163089554 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/163090762 1. I believe that fear can be a motivator, but is not the greatest motivator for everyone.  Fear can help you get out of your comfort zone, but can also cause people to isolate themselves depending on the situation. 
2.  My biggest fear is being alone. This goes under the personal anxiety category. ]]> 2017-03-28 12:17:37 UTC https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/163090762 https://padlet.com/kpotts4/4tgrk67k2erk/wish/165645806 1. I do not think that fear is motive in today's society. I do not believe this because people are overcoming their fears all the time. 
2. One of my biggest fears is Death. I am greatly afraid to die.
