Our society seems to have an underlying belief that you are born with courage.
You aren’t.
Courage is a skill you learn.
The way you learn courage is to find something you are afraid to do, and then do it anyway.
Courage is not something someone else can do for you.
We all feel fear.
We are all scared in the beginning.
One of the worst feelings in the world is to feel trapped by your own fears isn’t it?
Courage, just like any skill, builds as you practice it, and the fear subsides in the face of it.
Is it going to be pretty at first?
Maybe… But probably not.
Zig Ziglar said, “anything worth doing is worth doing poorly until you can do it better”.
You will become the person you need to be, as you go.
Nobody ever gets better at a skill, waiting for it to come to them.
So be brave my lovelies.
The world is waiting for you.
