Courage is the energy current behind all great actions and the spark that ignites the initial baby steps of growth.

It is the intangible force that propels you forward on your journey.” NeedsMomentsActionEnergyForceGrowthBehindsStepsBreakCourageJourneyDangerReadyBabyFindingsDifficultyBraveryCurrentsOppositionBarriersInner StrengthSparksInitialsBreak ThroughConfrontingDeep WithinIntangibleIgniteInsurmountableBaby Steps Book:If Life Is a Game, These Are the Rules: Ten Rules for Being Human as Introduced in Chicken Soup for the Soul Source: If Life Is a Game, These Are the Rules: Ten Rules for Being Human as Introduced in Chicken Soup for the Soul

We used to say it was the mother who formed the child; for it is she who teaches him to walk, talk, and so on. But none of this is really done by the mother. It is an achievement of the child.
