Courage is an experience

Not a skill.

The skill is to learn to tolerate the experience. And the reason the skill is essential is because it is a necessary condition for your soul to thrive.

The experience of courage is one of aliveness that often includes sweat, elevated heart rate, helpful stress, and body chemicals that are preparing you to contribute. The more you can learn to tolerate, or better yet, value and celebrate this vital experience, the more freedom and, ironically, ease you will feel.

What if you fully allowed the experience of courage to permeate your life?
