Courage Quotes For Living In Courage

Wednesday, October 14th, 2009 by Debra Oakland

Today I am in the mood for some courage quotes to kick start the day.  Here are a few by people I consider courageous.  Courage is required to reattempt a task after initial failure, and to continue on until success is reached.  Reading quotes of courage, fills me with confidence and a sense of inner power. Quotes are like condensed life lessons – to be shared with the world.

Failure – Courage – Failure – Courage

Monday, December 8th, 2008 by Debra Oakland

Have you ever failed at anything? If you haven’t, you’ve risked nothing. You have never lived. The people in this video failed again and again and yet??? They are household names to all of us. Why? They did not quit. They had courage, moving forward through all obstacles. What obstacles do you need to move through?

Never look back, ever. There is nothing (no-thing) there. It is all now in the present and out in front of you. Walk, talk, live and love in courage.

The lives of Abraham Lincoln, Lucille Ball, Ulysses S. Grant, The Beatles, Michael Jordan, Thomas Edison, Walt Disney and Michael Jordan were seen by some as failures. Very famous failures. Take some risks, for who knows where they will lead you.

Living In Courage Asks – How Creative Are You?

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008 by Debra Oakland

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to let our creativity be something that unites us, not separates us?  Welcome creativity flowing in and through your life. We are creators. We are directors. We are the architects of our own lives. How about directing your life by welcoming all the greatness life has to offer you? Trust the hierarchy of your being that will set into motion the great possibilities you dare to dream. Let your brilliant mind express through you everything you can conceive in the future. What you can conceive you can achieve. Let the future come closer to you.

Mom in Disneyland at Tune Town

We are all given a divine spark of love and light to basically express the oneness of who and what we are. I am always inspired by Walt Disney, the creation and ongoing creativity during and since his passing. My mother BJ visited from Ruidoso, New Mexico to celebrate 75 years young and healthy.  Mom told me that thinking of going to Disneyland after 20 years made her feel 5 years old again.  We ran around like kids, met 2 wonderful people who surprised Mom and I with lunch and a birthday cake to celebrate.  Thank you Silio and Nikki.  You made our day and gave us memories that will last forever.
