A Story About Courage

 

HOW IT ALL STARTED..

I had been thinking and planning to establish my own blog site for years now but I would always have lots of “reason” to hold up. On some occasions, I would sit down to do my research. Literally preparing my pens, highlighters, notes and my word application. Writing down all the important details that I can gather as much as I could. Letting my creative skills assist me on the design of my own websites. I would compute the budget and costs related. My mind would generate so much idea all at once. I even subscribed to multiple blog sites to help me ensure that I will be getting the latest updates from the experienced bloggers. Also, ensuring that I would not overlook some of the basics, hope not. But regardless of all of my effort in the past, the end result was the same. The cycle would stop at such point where doubts and fear will overpower my decision making resulting to short circuiting my ability to think. Followed by my bunch of excuses “again” dreading me to take a break, re-think and re-consider the consequences. Effectively delaying my plans. Mind you, when I say that I would be taking a break that would meant months of not doing any progress and that took years. 

Nevertheless, I let this fear and doubt to negatively affect my decision making process. It turned up that at the back of my head, my inner self is seeking for other people's approval. Lame and deplorable. There was this fear of rejection. Evidently, I doubted myself. I was not willing to take a risk. I made myself believe that I am incapable of starting my own blog. 

Years back, I've got my Degree in Electronics Engineering and pursued an Accounting Program and some other programs and courses in the areas of Canadian Taxation and some are related to Financial Planning programs. Got some decent grades and I think I did well in school. Was able to secure jobs in the Financial Institutions abroad. I could say that I am a well trained corporate individual. Bizarrely speaking, I do not have the backbone to do blogging. In spite of my strong appetite to blog. Perhaps it's not within the my expected boundary of expertise from what I perceive? Excuses alert! 

Truthfully, I was not ready at the time and I do not have the emotional strength to carry on. Alibis are my best allies fuelled by idleness. There was an absence of Courage! A lack of tenacity and boldness to go after my holy grail. Upon my contemplation, I fearlessly took a time to stick around and gather all the possible resources to initiate my blog site AGAIN! I said to myself, fear no more! This time for sure, of course it would be real. Voila! My blog is up and running. Spreading words of encouragements. 

Some of the lessons that this article would like to convey was that, time and again it begins with the Courage! Have that Courage to conquer the fear and the unknown. Do not let any types of fear jeopardize your goals. Never to let any of your excuses annihilate your ability to achieve your heart's desire. Have that Courage to trust yourself. Never to doubt yourself. Have that Courage to pursue your passion no matter what they are and no matter how difficult it could be. Have the Courage to face the uncertain. Have that Courage to endure the challenge that lies ahead with true grit. Have that Courage to eagerly run after your ambitions. Have that Courage to explore other options with cautions and preparedness. Have that Courage to chase you ambitions intently. Have that Courage to break the chain of disbelief. Have that Courage to motivate yourself.  Have that Courage to eradicate the idea of impossible. Have that Courage to vanquish the idea that it would not work. Have that Courage to diligently persuade yourself to anticipate about the fulfillment of a much greater things to happen. 

To bring back in mind what my mentors would always remind me - follow your passion not someone else! Don't let those 10,000 excuses sabotage your one ultimate goal! It is effortless to back down your inspirations. Surely, the journey would not be easy. Anyhow, no one would promise an easy path. At any event, we should never ask for an easy one. The process was meant to be hard. Once you get the hang of it with the aid of Courage then you carry through, indeed and most would agree, you would further feel fulfillment followed by pleasure and happiness.

Nevermore someone with a great purpose to underrate the Value of Courage. Substantially, Courage can boosts your confidence.

Of course, this was not to suggest that whatever comers to your mind you would go for it and come what may. It's not like just letting face propels you whatever you want to go hoping that it would work somehow since you're courageous anyway without any relevant planning ahead.  Proper planning plays an important role. It doesn't have to be perfect though. Simply say, take advantage of having that Courage to help you kick-start your well laid plans. It's that positive effect of Courage that I would like to emphasize in here.

Sharing with you this wonderful bible scripture that you would probably love to hear as well.. It's from the Book of Joshua 10:25. 

Joshua said to them, “Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Be strong and courageous. This is what the LORD will do to all the enemies you are going to fight.”

Hope this article brought you a positive perception in life as you move forward on your unique amazing journey. Spread the Courage you have in your heart that is meant to be shared.
