What Courage means to different people

Dear Couragers,

Do read and tell me if the following is true for you.

Eleanor Roosevelt:
You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you think you cannot do.

What the above means to us:
We must do things which we find difficult or impossible. Failures are just experiences for us to gain strength, courage and confidence.

Remember that:
John Quincy Adams:
Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.

Helen Keller:
I long to accomplish great and noble tasks, but it is my chief duty to accomplish humble tasks as though they were great and noble. The world is moved along, not only by the mighty shoves of its heroes, but also by the aggregate of the tiny pushes of each honest worker.

What the above means to us:
Excellent results is the consequence of the accumulation of each understanding/concept/lesson, so treat each practice as a great and noble task. Do each as though it is a PSLE question.
