Yesterday I gave an example of a simple act of courage. Today I am going to post some quotes about courage. These quotes were taken from The Virtues Guide, published by Virtues Communications.
” Courage is personal bravery in the face of fear. It is doing what needs to be done, even when it is really hard or scary”
“Sometimes courage means recognizing a danger and standing firm. It doesn’t mean taking unnecessary chances just to look brave.”
Courage is a quality of the heart. Courage comes from what you feel in your heart rather than just what you think. It comes from knowing yourself and knowing down deep that you can and should do something.”
The information on courage touches on the subject of fear. Here is what the same book says about fear:
“When you feel afraid, to ahead and feel your fear. Name it, then let it go. Decide what is the wise and courageous thing to do. Go ahead and do it, even if you still feel afraid.”
I encourage the readers to think about the above quotes.
Tomorrow I will discuss the core value that Marines call commitment.
