Courage

Sometimes we all need some courage to help us take the next step and move forward in our lives. And, courage is not the same as an absence of fear. Courage is doing what you really want to do, even if it scares you to death. Courage is taking tiny steps in the right direction even though, sometimes, that really is terrifying to do. And it is courage that makes you inch closer to where you want to be. It’s courageous that enables you to pursue something better. Today, even if you feel defeated, demoralized or just plain tired, create some quiet time to go within and find the courage to take one step forward in the direction to where you want to go or to who you would like to become. Whether it’s a better relationship, a better job, or that you just want more quality into your life in general, you must be courageous. Today, set your intentions to be brave and take action. Just one step at the time- a tiny step in the right direction. In truth, you know what the next step for you is, right now. Take that step. Today, choose to be courageous, knowing that courage is not the absence of fear but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear. Just for today, I return to the basics of life-forgiveness, courage, gratitude, love and humor. I have the courage to live my dreams. I am safe. I am willing to take one small step towards making profound change in my life. I love myself even if I am not perfect and I trust that everything is always working out for my highest good. And so it is.
