Courage manifests in multiple dimensions. My favourite is around decision-making which signifies courage. It extends to both the things that we do and the ones that we don’t. Courage ultimately tests our abilities and forces us to take tough decisions. Maybe we won’t always be courageous. But it helps to remember some of these quotes that can influence us and our actions in difficult situations.
