What inspires courage? Some people may be afraid to step up for themselves. Then there are those whom aren’t afraid to be the person to fit in and stand out. Meaning, They are apart of community yet still, when they see something wrong their not afraid to say something. When we see these people, they even inspire others to be like them.
Great People inspire courage. Looking back in our history. Great people like Rosa Parks, she had the courage to stand up for what was right. Great speeches that people give like MLK. He spoke some of the best speeches. He gave people the courage to start a movement. A movement to help us. There are some people today that may inspire you to be a leader.
Even music can encourage people. A lot of people refer to music as a mental therapist. To help them over come whatever trials they maybe going through. I do this as well. Music too, can be a good resource for courage. If listening to a artist you are inspired by, the may say something that really inspires you to be like them. If not, then better.
Seeing people in bad situations. I know that if I was to see someone struggling with anything I would help them. Seeing how everything is now, it inspires me to have the courage to be a better person. It also inspires me to stay in school and do my best. To strive and achieve for my many goals.
A lot of people are shut down with put downs. Negative feedback sometimes, more than likely, brings people down to their worst. With some it builds them up and helps them do better. Its takes a lot to be that person to take in feedback as such and use it as courage. Courage to do better. Whatever feedback you got back that was negative, use it to do better and try again.
Having people beside you. When you have friends along with you that can also inspire you to have the courage to endure. Because friends inspire you to be a better person. To also be more outgoing and helpful to others around you. Of course those friends are those who give positive suggestions. Your friends and family as well play a huge role in inspiring you to have courage to do anything. Also to endure through any tribulations.
