Do you have the Courage?Written by graham and julie
Do you have courage to do what you believe in? Do you have courage to complete task even though whole world thinks you are crazy? Do you have courage to continue with your dreams when they appear to be impossible dreams? Or do you just cave in and find good excuses as to why they were impossible? The question is: Do you have courage to follow your heart?It seems to us that one of traits of successful people is their ability to keep focussed on ‘inner desire' no matter what. They are people who believe in themselves and can close their ears to people who say ‘it can't be done! ‘It's impossible' ‘You're crazy!' They close their minds to people who want to impose limits on their lives. They have ability to focus on positive at all times. They don't see obstacles they only see solutions. These are not exceptional people. You can do this too. All you need to do is eradicate limiting beliefs you have that tell you that you are not good enough or ‘people like us don't do these things, or it's all right for them but me............. To be like them, successful, all you have to do is believe and live by understanding that everything you achieve or fail to achieve is a direct result of your own thoughts. People who make a difference in life do not merely, TRY to do something they Do it. To try to do something is just to create an illusion in your thoughts. Have a go at following experiment: IF you are sitting down.... TRY to stand up. Did you succeed? Then you didn't try, you did it. Did you remain seated? Then you didn't succeed but with effort and commitment, unless you have a disability, you can succeed. The point is. TRY is a nothing word designed to ensure that whenever you start anything new you don't put full commitment and courage into it. You just go in half hearted and hope it works. Guess what; whatever you put in you get out. So go in half hearted and get out indifference i.e. no success. Go in with full commitment and courage and you will succeed. You may not succeed in time scale you wish but we promise, you will succeed. All you have to do is, focus your thoughts and energy, work hard and make effort for as long as it takes, be courageous and remove or go around obstacles you meet on way.

While I was in high school, I developed this habit of always watching people and how they responded to things. When I’m walking, when I’m talking, and when I’m eating, I love to watch people. I don’t know why I do it, but I think it’s just my curiosity of wanting to understand all of various human characteristics.About two years ago, in one of my high school math classes, I met this unbelievably down to earth girl (let’s call her Sarah), but she always seemed to be sad. Everyday when I had class with her, I would try to take a look at her when I can to observe and perhaps better understand why she seemed so sad. Later as I began to talk to her I soon found out why and I was shocked: she always gone out with wrong guys and some of them raped her. I was in disbelief. I have so much respect for girls and when I find out that other guys mistreat girls I often get quite angry about it. However, in this case as I kept on talking with her, I couldn’t believe why she let things like this happen. She seemed so strong, so focused, so appreciative of life, but she let herself hang out with wrong people. Life is a series of light and darkness. We all want to be in sunshine, feeling warmth, that great feeling when you’re out in sunshine. At times cloudy storms tend to disrupt that light, making us feel uncomfortable and uneasy. However, we can always get back in light; we can always push darkness away: light and darkness cannot be in same room.
