Welcome to the YouTopian Journey. Each week I will be sharing unique wisdom as well as a more in depth overview of the art work that is featured on the Instagram @youtopianjourney. This week we focus on the most important trait needed today, courage.
WHY COURAGE?
“Only a massive rebirth of courage in both men and women will rescue the world.”-Robert L. Moore. King, Warrior, Magician, Lover. Rediscovering the Archetypes of the Mature Masculine
Call it whatever you want:
Fortitude.
Inner Strength.
Grit.
Guts.
Courage.
Whatever name you give it, it is a required ingredient for not only greatness, but for simply existing. Yes, simply existing day in and day out in the modern world. Courage is required to face the daily obstacles of life. It is needed to take on the mediocre majority. It is a superpower that must be unleashed, one that each individual possesses.
If you remember anything at all from the YouTopian Journey, remember this:
Nothing great nor remarkable will ever be achieved without courage.
But only if you act on your courage, only if you engage in it. The courageous do not give up nor do they give in, especially not without a fight.
And the best part?
Each and every one of you can engage in courageous behavior, every day.
“Courage, is not an ability one either possesses or lacks. Courage is the willingness to engage in a risk-taking behavior regardless of whether the consequences are unknown or possibly adverse. We are capable of courageous behavior provided we are willing to engage in it.” -Alfred Adler
Yes!
You do not need to have superhuman strength or come off an assembly line with superpowers. It is within us. It comes down to our will.
