Courage ~ August 25, 2011

Courage today. I believe in moving forward and sometimes that takes courage. The courage to simply put one foot in front of the other, the courage to stand up for the things we believe, the courage to simply live our lives the way we know we should and there are some days when it is really "the quiet voice at the end of the day saying 'I'll try again tomorrow'.

Quotes

We all have the ability…we just don't all have the courage to follow our dreams and to follow the signs. ~ Paulo Coelho

~ When were younger we thought we could do anything. As we grew we learned things like doubt, fear, anxiety, and limitations.  I think we can all do anything we wish to as long as we have the "courage to follow our dreams". We all have the ability.  We may not always have all the skills or knowledge necessary, but that can always come later.


Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow." ~ Mary Radmacher

~One of my favorite quotes. Many times we think of courage as some heroic act; but sometimes it is smaller than that. The little things in life usually matter the most, so sometimes courage is as simple as just getting out of bed in the morning.

Your time is limited, don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living the result of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinion drowned your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition, they somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. ~ Steve Jobs

~ Steve Jobs former CEO of Apple . . . some big changes in his life at the moment. It takes courage to make those big changes, to be the person who you know you are, to follow your heart and your intuition. Are you following your heart?
