“Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others.” ― Robert Louis Stevenson.
Each and every person fears one thing or another. This fear prevents us from doing what we want to do. The difference between leaders and followers is that leaders hide their fears and followers exhibit their fears. Leaders exhibit their courage and follows hide their courage.
Courage is one of the fathers of Leadership. Courage teaches leadership to step forward and act for the right cause...Courage to stand against oppositions..Courage to be different...Courage to say "No" when everyone says "Yes"...Courage to question the status quo. Courage to say "Lets do it this way instead of that way".
Talk of Kwame Nkrumah, Nelson Mandela, and the wonderful change agents whose names will forever be on the lips of potential leaders, all kept their fears to themselves and shared their courage with others. Their courage and exemplary lives differentiated between teachers and "teachers"...“The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.” ― William Arthur Ward
