... ALL OTHER SCRIPTS MUST BE PLACED BELOW

I don’t know whether you are in a relationship or not, but as it is Valentine’s Day today, it seems to me like the perfect moment to recommit to YOU and to living your life with COURAGE.


But what does that even mean?

When I share my story, people often respond with the words – wow! – you are so courageous.

Red heart

The first time I heard someone say that to me, I thought – courageous?
That is a strange word to use to describe having the time of my life and doing what I LOVE!

 

Because you see, like most people, my understanding of the word Courage is fairly traditional. It’s about firemen rescuing babies from burning buildings. It’s about people putting themselves in danger – taking action to intervene when a crime is in progress.

 

But actually, the word COURAGE comes from the Latin ‘COR’ meaning heart – and the word ‘COURAGE’ means to live from the heart – or to live WHOLEHEARTEDLY.

 

Ultimately, Courage has little to do with heroic acts and EVERYTHING to do with the choices you make – moment by moment, day by day, right throughout the course of your life.

 

Think of it like this…

 

Every time an opportunity challenges you to be MORE than who you presently are, you are acting with courage.

 

Every time an opportunity pushes you to take responsibility for the state of your life, to express yourself authentically, to act with integrity, open your eyes and your heart to the full experience of life, you are acting with COURAGE.

 

Every time you say YES to what inspires you and NO to what depletes you, you are acting with courage.

 

THOSE opportunities to act with courage, arise every single day of your life.

 

In fact,

 

The FIRST and GREATEST form of COURAGE
is the courage to take responsibility for your own life.

 

Like it or not, you alone are responsible for the person you are today, the state of your heart and the shape of your life.

 

The decisions you make moment by moment, hour by hour and day by day are shaping your life – whether you realise it or not.

 

But the moment you DO, the moment you see it, you ‘get’ it, and you realise how much power you have – that this is YOUR life, and your happiness, your relationships, your sense of well-being – everything starts with you…. then the magic happens.

 

YOU get to take back the reins to your own life.

 

You get to be RESPONSIBLE.
RESPONSIBLE.
The word itself is formed of 2 others RESPONSE and ABLE.

 

So, YES clearly thing will happen over which we have no real control.
That’s true for all of us. We don’t have the power to control everything outside of ourselves, but we CAN choose how to respond in every single moment.

 

RESPONSE * ABLE
