Show Notes: Episode 3: How Courage Can Change Your Life, May 6, 2020

 Today we are going to talk about how courage can not only change your life, but give you the control that you need to get you where you want to go.

We are living in some really challenging times. This global pandemic has caused so many people to shift their lives in ways they never imagined. For many people it has affected their mental health and ability to cope with everyday tasks.

Let’s start off my identifying what Courage is?

According to the dictionary, courage is defined as

  • the ability to do something that frightens one.
  • strength in the face of pain or grief
  • Basically is doing something bravely or just the act of being brave. We all have this inside and we need to find it!

    This is also about control. Having control over things during a challenging time or period can be difficult. When you don’t have control, you need to use courage to help you FEEL like you are in control.

    Gretchin Rubin said it best, “Act the way you want to feel.” This is gold you guys!

    • We have to look for ways to process our feelings
  • We have to take care ourselves
  • Take care of our family and those around us
  • Why is Courage so Important?

    We don’t give ourselves the permission to act bravely. Often we only have control of our feelings and our mindset. When you give yourself courage, you can change the mindset.

    Often choosing comfort is the easy way out of choosing courage. You get in the mindset that negates your efforts to move you ahead. CHOSE Courage over Comfort and you will seek yourself grow.

    One of my favorite quotes is by Brené Brown, “Courage has a ripple effect. Every time we choose courage, we make sure everyone around us is a little better and the world is a litter braver.”

    I AM SO HERE FOR THIS!!!

    • You have the ability to be brave
  • You have the ability to challenge yourself
  • Key Takeaways

    • Be nice to yourself- Most Important
  • Be loving, compassionate, cooperative, and kind
  • Connect with 1 person each day for 1 week and ask them- How are they doing?
  • With Courage find Joy: look for things that make you happy, find an activity you can do that puts you at ease (music, meditation, working out, cooking, etc)
  • Connect with people: We are humans! We are meant to connect and have emotions!
  • Also May is National Mental Awareness Month, if you or someone you know suffers from mental health please check-in and let them know you are here for them.
  • Connect with US!
