I stumbled across this gem. Cindy is a leadership consultant specializing in building courage in organizations. Funny, profound and most of all practical, this video gives you 3 steps on how to develop your courage muscle and inspires you to do it
Some highlights:
- Only 30% of people think of themselves as courageous
- Courage is not this epic, life or death thing but everyday, simple acts
- Courage is not absence of fear. “If you are not afraid, you are simply not paying attention”. It is rather an ability to overcome the paralyzing fear
- We are not born with or without courage, rather it is like a muscle that can be exercised and developed
- Courage is contagious; if you are courageous you inspire those around you to also be courageous
- It comes down to a moment where we have a choice to act in courage, or not to act
I highly recommend watching this. I guarantee you will be inspired.
