What the Hero and the Coward Have in Common

“The hero and the coward both feel the same thing…but it’s what you do with it that matters.” –Cus D’Amato

Courage is not the absence of fear. It’s the choice to move ahead in spite of the fear. There will be moments where you may feel afraid. But the question is, Will you choose to move forward anyway?

At any one time, there could be multiple emotions rushing around. The goal isn’t to deny these feelings exist. Rather, it’s to see the big picture, and to act in alignment with what we know is most important.

Feeling fear doesn’t mean you’re not brave. It’s what you choose to do (or not do) that determines that.
