“A person of courage is also full of faith.”
A courageous person is a person who is willing to fight regardless of whatever consequences or limitations they have to face. They are the people who face their fear, tackle difficult challenges head-on to achieve their goals. It doesn’t come naturally to everyone. It needs to be developed in people by having their goals set and work on it. One can enhance their abilities, break their barriers and be courageous by working on certain things.
- Be opinionated– One should always stand up for themselves and share their point of view. They should have the courage to give their own opinion in front of people.
- Try new things– One should always be open to do things which they haven’t done before and be courageous to do it alone. One should have the ability to expand their horizon.
- Strength in adversity– One shouldn’t be afraid to go against the challenges and should face by having strength and being courageous.
- Meet new people– One should have the courage to go up to people, talk to them and network with them. It not only helps you to be courageous but also to build contacts.
- Focus on being positive– Courageous people should be positive and avoid all negative vibes coming in between their goals.
- Do something that fears you– One should try things which they fear to do. It helps one to overcome their fear and be more courageous in life.
- Stand up for things– When required one should have the courage to stand up for things which they think are happening and speak up against them.
- Follow your heart– Passion is what helps to do certain things in life which we are not able to do in general. One should follow their heart which will help to do courageous things and achieve their goals.
As people start working on some of these points, they start getting the qualities that a courageous person should have. People start having self-confidence, get compassionate, have integrity, and won’t be scared to be a leader, follow their intuition and start stepping outside their comfort zone.
I am a public relations postgraduate student, at SCoRe where one of the core values taught to us is to be “Courageous”. The core value taught to us says that we should be ‘Courageous for a rough ride, take initiative, and tackle difficult challenges.’ With each passing day, we chose to act even when we are afraid to do anything new.
