“Fear is a reaction. Courage is a decision.”
“Courage is not the absence of fear, but the decision that something is more important than fear.”
“I read once that courage is not the absence of fear, but the decision that something is more important than that fear.”
“Every leader has the courage to make decisions. No decision is usually the worst decision.”
“Courage is a decision you make to act in a way that works through your own fear for the greater good as opposed to pure self-interest. Courage means putting at risk your immediate self-interest for what you believe is right.”
“You can either be a bystander who lives his life in reaction to the decisions that others make, or you can be the leader who is making those decisions.”
