How to be Brave

What would you do if you were brave? That's a question Michael Hyatt asks in a recent post about living your own dream.

It's a great question, that inspires yet another question: why aren't we more brave? Or, why aren't we more courageous?

At a time of great economic uncertainty and growing pressures at home and work, we need courage more today than ever. The good news is, anyone can become more courageous.

Courage is a subjective thing, different for each person no doubt. Yet, we all understand that at the very root of courage is taking a step into the unknown. We need courage to face our fears.

We don't have a certain amount of courage that can be stored or used until it runs out. I believe courage actually grows the more we encounter our fears and, ultimately, overcome them. In fact, the more we step out and take action, the more confident we become.

Emerson said it best: "Do the thing you fear and the death of fear is certain." 

The next time you face fear, do that very thing and watch the fear fade away.
