Rock and a hard place

Is it what separates the men from the boys? The women from the girls? I am talking about courage of course. The grace under pressure. Fear is natural, and when in dangerous circumstances, inevitable. The courageous men and women in our world, have learned to curb that fear and remain calm while recognizing that fear.

“Courage is fear holding on a minute longer.”

 General George S. Patton

 At some point in our lives, everyone will experience courage. Even if you do not realize it yourself at the time. Weather it be something very simple that you got a bit nervous about. Or it be a very difficult or dangerous situation that you may be recognized for by your peers, co-workers, family members, and so on and so-fourth.

We [ourselves] must find that inner strength each day to mold our brain to be like water. With the ability to take shape of any situation. Be like the martial art [Jeet Kune Do] of the mind. Formless, shapeless. Bruce Lee said "If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. If you put it in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot...it becomes the teapot." We must be like water in our everyday lives.

Taking a day off is not an option. Be ready to face the fear. Be ready to face yourselves. Be eternal.

Be Courageous!
