Courage

"Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality that guarantees all the others. – Winston Churchill

 Who, does not know Sir Winston Churchill! One of the Greatest British rulers we have witnessed. Tells us about this gem of an attribute.Courage is one of those attributes that enable a person to overcome his self implicated limits. Being Fearful always limits one's abilities. Fear from taking a risk, fear of failing, fear of not being able to do something, fear of losing ones life, and fear of taking a risk. All of these collectively limit a persons abilities.

It is always easy to rationalize your own doubts and conservative instincts,particularly when times are tough. Courage and self belief, can never be inoculated into a person. These qualities are always attained as a natural gift, a blessing. These can result either as a consequence of a hard blow, that you have faced in your life, if you are a slow learner, or this can be acquired as a result of an observation of other people facing similar problems.

Continuous effort – not strength or intelligence – is the key to unlocking our potential.   Winston Churchill

Effort always requires courage and courage is always dependent on your strength. Is there any one who has ever gained success in life without a continuous failure, without facing hardships, or without a continuous effort. I would confidently say NO.

Effort can always beat talent. Talent and effort combined together are an unmatched pair.

“Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb.” 

– Winston Churchill 

A journey to your dreamy success is a lifelong voyage, an adventure which has a chest full of joy waiting for you at the finishing line. And if someone never musters up enough courage to take the first step then how will he be able to conquer his dreams. To conquer his dreams he needs that courage, the one that urges a person to take that first step in his life. 

People fail, people fall down, people break. Only those who gather enough courage along the way to stand up every time they fall, are the ones who are remembered.
