The other side of fear is excitement. For example, lots of folks enjoy scary movies. In essence being afraid is also a moment for an adrenalin rush where one also feels very alive. So fear is not really a bad thing unless it becomes a chronic condition where one is always operating from a state of fear. So, the goal is to enjoy the moment of fear (aliveness) and then put it behind one and move onto a more productive emotion like happiness.
For example, I'm exceedingly happy that my upgraded computer has spell check. Hah! You have no idea how much joy this brings me, the chronic dyslexic miss speller.
