Courage

'What may look like a small act of courage, is courage nevertheless. The important thing is to be willing to take a step forward.'  Daisaku Ikeda

Courage doesn't always happen with a sprint, often it arrives with the small steps forward we take - one after the other. If you have a goal you are working toward, take your eye off the prize ...and instead take a quick glance back to see how far you have come.  Measure your success not by how far you still have to go, but by the distance that you have already conquered.

Remember, courage is not waiting at the finish line, it walks next to you while you take the small steps.
