Courage

Courage is the absence of fear. Most of us want to be known as courageous yet each one of us have our own inbuilt fears. For some the fear could be due to an earlier experience eg she had been bitten by a dog as a child and now fear all dogs. We need to instil courage by conquering fear. Confront your fears and you will be will overcome them.

One of my greatest fear is the fear of public speaking. I was tongue tied in my growing up years even though we had a very solid education in St Joseph School Johor Baru. In my later years I learnt to address bigger crowds and courage seemed to have flowed through.
