Where Does Courage Take You?

“When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change; at such a moment, there is no point in pretending that nothing has happened or in saying that we are not yet ready. The challenge will not wait. Life does not look back. A week is more than enough time for us to decide whether or not to accept our destiny.”

- Paulo Coelho

We all have different stories to tell and all of these come from personal experiences. And many of these stories involve taking risks and using courage to overcome the impossible.

What is Courage?

“The ability to control fear and to be willing to deal with something that is dangerous, difficult, or unpleasant”

“to be brave and confident enough to do what you believe in”

- Cambridge Dictionary

Let's discuss the first one.

Let me ask you this: Have you encountered or experienced a situation wherein you're about to deal with the unknown? There are voices within you that shake you from the inside. These voices tell you to stop and procrastinate.

We believe that fear is a feeling that warns us that there’s an underlying danger. This fear hinders us from achieving our goals and desires. Luckily, we can fight our fears and those unpleasant situations when we are driven by our courage.

Courage can dissolve all uncertainty that you are feeling. Because of the way it responds to all the surrounding negativity. Courage is a virtue worn by everyone who has a brave heart.
