Courage is about doing what you're afraid to do.
Aviation is proof that given, the will, we have the capacity to achieve the impossible.
I can give you a six-word formula for success: "Think things through - then follow through."
Courage is doing what you are afraid to do. There can be no courage unless you are scared.
Think positively and masterfully, with confidence and faith, and life becomes more secure, more fraught with action, richer in achievement and experience.
