Go with courage and confidence.

KEEP MOVING FORWARD UNAFRAID.

No one is born courageous, no one is born confident, but our environment, the events that takes place around us, and the people in our lives determine a lot of what we develop along the way, courage or cowardice; boldness or fearfulness. We cannot expect to win a battle that we are afraid of fighting. If we must win any battle, we must go into it with courage and confidence, otherwise we are defeated before the battle begins.

It is not uncommon to be afraid of doing something we have not done before, but facing that fear irrespective will gear us toward success, and will give us the confidence to do more. Nothing worthwhile comes with ease, anything that comes easily is not worth much, and we will loose it easily.

In the words of Aristotle, who said, "You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor." Life does not yield and bend to those who are not ready to bend it; doors does not open to those who are not willing to pull it down; fortune they say, favours the brave.

Whatever dreams you have, whatever your aspirations are, everything is possible to you if you believe in yourself. You must be ready to take risks, you must be willing to deal with difficult situations. Nothing happens if you don't make things happen. Never look down on yourself but always keep your heads high. Like Helen Keller said, "Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye." When you face your challenges headlong, they bend to your will, and surrender to your bravery.
