Developing the Attribute of Courage for Better Life


 

Once you establish courage, you begin to better your life. Constructing courage will help you take risks to a brighter future that you usually wouldn't take. When you establish courage, you put fear behind you. Bravery is the process of admitting that you have dreads, yet you're willing to determine a way to defeat those fears and not let these fears take charge of you. It's OK to experience your fears at suitable times.


Read the following texts from the Scriptures to see courage in action:


"But David persisted. 'I have been looking after my father's sheep and goats' 

he said, 'When a lion or bear comes to steal a lamb fro the flock. I go after it with a club and rescue the lamb from its mouth. 

If the animal turns on me, I catch it by the jaw and club it to death. I have done this to both lions and bears, and I'll do it to this pagan Philistine, too, 

for he has defiled the armies of the living God! 

The LORD who rescued me from the claws of the lion and bear 

will rescue me from this Philistine.' 

Saul finally consented, 'Alright, go ahead,' 

he said, 'And may the LORD be with you!'" 

1 Samuel 17: 34-37, NLT. 


When you establish courage, you'll learn to self-direct yourself in life. You'll learn to accept punishment and rewards graciously. A courageous individual will frequently feel motivated to accept blame and responsibility while critiquing their actions and utilizing what they learn to move forward. Brave individuals will step to the front, instead of stepping back when opportunities come their way. On the other hand, a brave individual will step back and take a view of his or her errors gracefully.

 

An individual willing to make their life better will relax. This individual will relax even when plans fail. For example, if it stormed the next day the individual will find something else to occupy his or her time and feel just as happy about joining this adventure.


"And if a person loves righteousness, 

wisdom's labors have great virtue, 

for she teaches: self-control, prudence, justice, and courage -

 the most valuable attributes in life." 

Wisdom 8:7, NLT.  

 


Learn To Trust Yourself


To get successful and make your life better, you'll need to learn how to trust yourself. When you trust yourself, you are able to trust others also. Regrettably, we live in a world where trust is difficult to find, yet when you trust you, you can’t blame other people when things go wrong.

 

Making your life better includes utilizing your creative and critical mind. When you can produce fresh ideas or adding great values to existing ones, you're off to the road to success. You've many options in this world; it takes you to pull up resources to find those choices.

 

Occasionally in life, we feel uncomfortable. In fact, this is common. Are you willing to accept your irritations? Maybe at an interview, you feel lost. Are you willing to accept this irritation and discover a way to deliver a great speech to impress the interviewer? Alternatively, are you willing to allow negative energies to cost you the job?

 

Acceptance is your key to happiness. When you are able to learn to accept the good with the bad, you are able to learn how to live happier and better your life. If you can't accept, however, well, reread this material again.


"Be on guard. 

Stand firm in the faith. 

Be courageous. 

Be strong. 

And do everything with love." 

1 Corinthians 16: 13-14, NLT.


Here's a video, a powerful motivation speech on courage presented as a poem.
