In health this week we have been working on Taha Wairua which is Spiritual well-being. Our values reflect what is important to us. They are a shorthand way of describing our individual motivations. Together without beliefs, they are the casual factors that drive our decision-making. In class I took a self value assessment online and it got me to answers some questions then it sent me my results on what personal values I have.
For me letting go of fears and having the courage to grow and develop is the most important value to me. Any undesirable emotion that you feel or a thought which causes you great distress can be referred to as fear. Most of us live our life with a certain kind of fear. This may come in the form of being afraid of heights, change, or even the feeling of rejection. Regardless of what your fears are, it is your choice if you want these fears to limit your ability progress to your maximum potential as a person or conquer your fears once and for all. The choice lies within you. There are several reasons why you should face your fear. In the same manner, you will also get to enjoy several benefits in doing so.
What is courage?
Courage is when you face danger, pain, life obstacles and having courage is to overcome them. To have courage is to be brave. It is the ability to confront fear, pain, risk, danger, uncertainty or intimidation. Life has its struggles and battles but it is how you live life that counts.
Courage is the mental muscle that conquers fear. Like all muscles, the more you use them the stronger they become. Courage is not something you are born with, it must be developed.
