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.

Simon Sinek, the Start with Why guy:
As an adult nobody looks at my skills as survival skills, they look at me and say “what a talent you have.” When we’re young, the things we learn in order to survive become our talents when we’re adults.
There’s a corollary: That talent was born out of fear. Fear of not being good enough, fear of getting bullied, fear of your world crashing down.

Until you deal with that fear, you will continue to be driven by the fear.

You have to unlock the talent from the fear that birthed the talent if you want to be able to experience your talent freely, and not be a slave to it.

-- Calvin Conaway

Climbing the Right Ladder

http://gabebridwell.com/index.php/2011/07/18/climbing-the-right-ladder/
Why do most people not follow their bliss?  One word: fear.  We are overwhelmed by fear and primarily we are overwhelmed by the fear of what other people will think of us.

Joseph Campbell says "What will they think of me must be put aside for bliss."

One of the biggest inhibitors to following our bliss is "What will they think of me?  Am I going to look like an idiot if I follow my bliss and I fail?  Am I going to look like a fool?" -- all these different questions come into our mind.

-- Brian Johnson

This new song is called Roar. It’s a bit of a self-empowering type of song.

I wrote it because I was sick of keeping all these feelings inside and not speaking up for myself, which caused a lot of resentment.

Obviously I’ve been through a lot of therapy since my last record and that’s what this is about.

Etudes à la Faculté de Pharmacie de Montpellier : diplôme d'Etat de pharmacien, diplôme d'Etat d'audioprothèse, puis doctorat d'Université en Pharmacie. Elle devient rédacteur à la revue "Les Actualités Pharmaceutiques".

A la naissance de son fils, elle se met à peindre puis trouvant par hasard, chez un potier, un morceau de terre, elle commence à sculpter. Parfaitement autodidacte, elle abandonne peu à peu la peinture, puis la Pharmacie au profit de la Sculpture.
