What does "courage" mean? Does it mean a lack of fear? Not at all. Having courage means that you are afraid and do it anyway. What makes you "do it anyway"? The awareness that the result of what you are getting by daring is more important than fear itself. Therefore, any time you feel you are not brave enough to face a challenge, think about what you will achieve or obtain if you succeed. It might be saving a dear one from danger, passing a difficult test, dealing with a health problem. Simply having the courage to face a threatening situation makes you a winner. Such victory mainly consists in replacing a negative sentiment with a strong desire. How? By thinking about the satisfaction you will feel once you can say, "I did it!".
