When Courage Is At War With Fear

Fear says, ‘you are not responsible for your life.’ Courage says, ‘you are responsible for your life. You are responsible for your mistakes. You are responsible for where you are.’

Fear says, ‘when you mess up, blame other people. Courage says, ‘no.’ Courage says, ‘when you mess up, you are responsible for your mess. If you want it to change, you have got to stop blaming other people.’

Fear says, ‘Don’t worry about growth. You are okay where you are.’ But courage says, ‘no.’ Courage says, ‘growth happens when you move, when you have the courage to face your future, to do what is scary, to take risks, to do what is uncomfortable, not when you are stuck in one place.’

Fear says, ‘where you are right now, your comfort zone, is good for your growth.’ Courage says, ‘comfort zone is just comfort zone. When you are comfortable, you are not learning. When you are comfortable, you are not moving; you are just there. You are not stretching yourself. You are not adding value to your life. You are not growing through life. Instead, you are just going through life’

Courage says, ‘Do not be afraid to try what is new, what you do not know. Do not be afraid to challenge yourself, to change your mind, to challenge your assumptions. Because that is how you are going to grow.’

The question is, ‘Do you want to experience a new life?’

Courage is Knocking At The Door

Life is about courage. Everything starts with courage. It is everything in life. Without courage, the ability to face what we do not know, to do what we do not know how to do, to live our lives without fear, to face the world without fear, to just be who we are, we are done. Just done!

Without courage, no matter who we are, how smart we are, we are not going anywhere. That is why it is important to listen to your heart, to listen to the voice of courage.

It is not loud, but it there. If you can listen, your life will never be the same again.

So if you are struggling to get things done, to find happiness, to pursue your goals, to stay with what you are doing, to be comfortable with yourself, to love, to play, to just be, to face your future, to face the world, to deal with knowledgeable people, you must listen to courage, not fear.

Why is that? Because ‘courage is calling.’ But you are not listening.
