Courage

What is the meaning of Courage? The meaning of courage is when somebody does something that they are afraid of doing and they overcome the fear when they overcome it. People tend to be scared of overcoming this fear because they think that they won't be able to do it but in reality they can do it. What are some synonyms to courage? Bravery, boldness,   and fearlessness, there are many more but these are just a few of what courage means. A lot of people have courage in them they just do not know that they have it in them.
Some examples of courage:

“Act well your part; there all honor lies.”        -Alexander Pope


This quote does not really get to me because I do not think that I understand the quote really well, but I am going to take a guess on order to understand the meaning of this quote. I think that you need to act well in order for things to come out the way that you want them to come out. Always be an honorable person and do the right thing no matter what other people think. If you commit to something stick to it because then when people see that you did not commit to whatever you said you were going to do then they will not trust you anymore.

Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement

“It is a rough road that leads to the heights of greatness”
-Seneca

This is a very true quote because to succeed in greatness there are a lot of obstacles you have to face in order to achieve what you want. They say that not everything in life is easy and that is true because the more goals you have for yourself the more obstacles you are going to have to face and overcome each one of those obstacles in order to achieve your goals. You will have a lot of obstacles that you are going to face but what you have to do is become strong and not bring yourself down when those obstacles hit. Always strive to become the best no matter what. Try never to take the easy way out because if you do take the easy way out then things will not look to be what they really are. Nothing in life is easy nothing you always have to work hard in order to get what you want.
