The essence of courage

0:00I feel like I'm really scared right now and I don't want that to be what's holding me back and I think if I believe in the possibility of like being this working out then I'm going to be more okay with facing that Fe yeah yeah you know what that is what courage awesome but do you know what the the definition of courage is like if you could explain it in a sentence like what what that

0:32what courage means um bravery uh doing something hard even though you know it's going to be hard anyway yeah all that fear is is it's pointing to something that we have yet to do and it's outside of our comfort zone M so the courage is I see something that I want and and that thing that I want is more than the fear that's showing up in me so it's it's having me actually move through it

1:04and still feel the fear I'm not denying the fear fear is powerful right fear is fear is an aspect of you that really cares about yourself you're like don't do this you know you could you could ruin your reputation if other people find out you have herpes then no one's going to love you like it's this it's this fear in you that is saying don't [ __ ] do it right back back up from the

1:36ledge right so it it takes this other aspect of you that's not this Primal part of you that's like just afraid to die and afraid that no one's going to love you and and this this part of you that's sometimes in your mind but I believe more in your heart that's that's like you know what I'm not going to die like the people that I want in my life are going to love me no matter

2:09what and I'm going to do this anyway I'm going to I'm going to take steps even as I feel the fear totally because this Vision that I have for my life is more important than keeping myself the safe in this way totally I feel like last year when I first found out I was more courageous I suppose you could say and um try to really prove to myself like oh you're worth more than this blah

2:41blah blah and then after a series of rejections from people who were valuable to me like what you said is um you know somebody who loves me and is a part of my life would still love me without that that wasn't proven to me so it's uh like okay like that went wrong that went wrong that went wrong oh no what if it goes wrong again that's kind of the point that I'm at yeah so

3:13what it what it sounds like to me is there's this classic case that happens where it's an aspect of denial thanks for watching now go here for more information
