It happened when a client was telling me about feeling discouraged.
That word, “discouraged,” hit me.
Dis-couraged. To lose courage.
We can be discouraged, losing our courage. We can be encouraged, taking courage in. And we can act courageously — act, in spite of fear.
Courage is not the absence of fear. It is choosing to act, to do what is right or good, even in the face of fear.
“Courage” comes from a Latin word, “cor,” which means “heart.”
You see, courage comes from the heart, from our core being. Courage comes from an inner strength, an understanding of what needs to be done.
Have you been discouraged?
