The Sword of Courage

“All great people of history, all the heroes and leaders and innovators who lit humanity’s way out of darkness and ignorance, forged themselves the courage to overcome their internal conflicts when it mattered most.

In many ways, they are just like us: 

They worried. 

They procrastinated. 

They sometimes had lower opinions of their fellow human beings. 

But what made them celebrated, what pushed society forward, what gave birth to their legend, was their sheer will to overcome such impulses and to faithfully, actively, and lovingly fight for a better life for themselves and others. 

Let us learn from them, let us master ourselves, and let us now add our own chapter of courage to the good book of humanity.”

I wanted to share my morning reading with you from the book The Motivation Manifesto.

Courageously create a beautiful day of faith in yourself, forward activity that supports your values, and love in mind and heart for yourself and others.
