It depends on the fear we're talking about. I have stagefrigth - but can't afford it - so I have to control it everytime I stand in front of a large croud (as a teacher that happens often - if you count the class as a crowd of people watching you then it even happens daily - many times a day).
But I guess all of us must be able to deal with our fears - but prefer to avoid them. If you have the fear of hights (as an example) you will avoid high places... But that doesn't mean you'll die of fear if suddenly you are stuck on top of a tree (don't ask me how you got there). You'll be forced to overcome your fear. Not pleasent but necesary and it halps if someone is there to lend you a helping hand.
