- Act as if you were courageous. This makes you a bit braver as if one side of yourself had been challenged and wished to show it was not wholly afraid.
- Pause to reflect that others have had to face great discouragements and great obstacles and have overcome them. And what others have done, surely you can do.
- Remember that your life forces move in a sort of rhythm and that if you feel depressed and without the power to face life you may be at the bottom of the trough; if you will keep up your courage, you will probably swing out of it by the very forces which at the moment are sucking you down.
- Remember you feel more defeated and downcast at night than during the daylight hours. Courage comes with the sun.
- Courage is the measure of a big soul. Try to measure up.
