Think of a situation where you're afraid to do something, and then you work up the nerve and do it. Let's assume it goes sufficiently smoothly.
Is the positive feeling you (i.e. you, personally) get from having successfully faced your fears stronger than the negative feeling of the fears themselves?

Yes. For me it is.
I am very into facing my fears. It's a thing with me. However, none of the fears I faced would qualify as a phobia.
Also, facing it, forcing myself to go through it and come out the other side - while enormously gratifying - did not permanently banish the fear.
