Choose Courage: Step Into the Life You Want

By Ruth M. Schimel

Choose Courage: Step Into the Life You Want transforms what could just be a heroic clich into actual ways you can realize your true capacities. Based on doctoral-level research with everyday people, Ruth Schimel has developed a 21st -century definition of courage. Instead of telling other people's stories, this book shows how your own efforts at dealing with difficult or challenging situations already prove your capacity for courage. You'll get the tools and guidance to build on your strengths and skills, whether or not you appreciate them entirely now. You'll also benefit from an array of options for transcending emotional barriers. The design also distinguishes Choose Courage. Since life is not linear, you can choose among the wide range of standalone aspects; they include insights from multiple disciplines, action plans, guides, and checklists. Photos, drawings and poetry inspire and entertain, as do quotes and humor. The holism of the one-sentence, new definition of courage integrates this richness and provides a firm platform for action. The book is adaptable to your situations. Avoiding the "just do it" tone of many self-help and how-to approaches, Choose Courage offers small, modest steps you can take for success that has meaning to you.
