This issue was not planned.  And I do not believe in coincidence.

Someone out there needed this today

 

"Courage is acting in spite of fear."   We all feel fear at some time or another. It cannot be denied. Fear is a natural emotion in the face of possible danger, whether it's the risk from actions that could threaten our lives, or from new experiences that could threaten our happiness.   A courageous woman knows that courage is not an absence of fear – it is acting in spite of fear. She acknowledges the fear she feels and is determined not to let it stand in her way. Become that woman!   Accept that risk is the price you pay for the chance for new opportunities and new beginnings. When you acknowledge your fear and push past it, you'll reach all your goals.   ©Jane Powell     Courage is admitting that you're afraid and facing that fear directly. It's being strong enough to ask for help and humble enough to accept it. Courage is standing up for what you believe in without worrying about the opinions of others. It's following your own heart, living your own life, and settling for nothing less than the best for yourself. Courage is daring to take a first step, a big leap, or a different path. It's attempting to do something that no one has done before and all others thought impossible. Courage is keeping heart in the face of disappointment and looking at defeat not as an end but as a new beginning. It's believing that things will ultimately get better even as they get worse. Courage is being responsible for your own actions and admitting your own mistakes without placing blame on others. It's relying not on others for your success, but on your own skills and efforts. Courage is refusing to quit even when you're intimidated by impossibility. It's choosing a goal, sticking with it, and finding solutions to the problems. Courage is thinking big, aiming high, and shooting far. It's taking a dream and doing anything, risking everything, and stopping at nothing to it make it a reality. ~ Caroline Kent ~       The power of courage   Fear is an obstacle you impose upon yourself. The power of any fear is the power you choose to give it.   And just as surely as you choose to fear, you can choose to move beyond that fear. In an instant you can transform the power of fear into the power of courage.   Fear will grab your attention, and warn you of very real dangers. Fear will heighten your awareness and compel you to be fully prepared, and those are very good and useful things.   But once the fear has done its job, your job is to move forward. Let the fear prepare you, and then quickly do what you have prepared to do.   Power, progress, achievement and fulfillment all come from facing your fears. By doing what you fear, you gain rock-solid confidence and vastly increase your effectiveness.   Every fear is an opportunity to grow in confidence and courage. Face the fear, and find the power of your courage.   Ralph Marston
