Show Notes:
Many Americans need help discovering and developing their Courage. Courage is important because we all need encouragement and motivation in order to achieve our goals.
In today's episode, I go in-depth about how my fellow Americans can benefit from having Courage.
This subject came up for me because I know that fear is the most universal human characteristic, and fighting our fears is a never-ending process. The choice must be made over and over and over again. Constantly making good choices takes courage.
I thought this was important to talk about in this episode because far too many people are afraid, some are even cowards.
