How to Develop Courage by Overcoming Daily Fears
Sometimes when thinking of courage, we think it only applies to rare and uncommon situations. Yet our ordinary lives can also be full of courage, even if we are not facing the end of a gun, a wild animal or a dangerous criminal. Courage doesn't just mean doing heroic acts. In fact, where there is fear on a daily basis, there are opportunities for you to show your courage. Here are some suggestions to develop courage by overcoming daily fears.
● Recognizing your fears.
By realizing that you're fearful, you are more likely to get to the bottom of what your fear is. You might come to understand that you're afraid of failing or taking chances. You may be fearful simply because you don't have confidence in yourself. The key is not to dwell on your fear, but rather to understand what it is what you're worried about.
● Ask yourself what is the worst that can happen.
If you hesitate to take action, ask yourself this: What's the worst that can happen? Then prepare to accept it. Then go on to improve on the worst. Is failure the worst thing that can happen? No, absolutely not. Doing nothing is actually the worst thing that can happen. When you take no action, you are assured of getting nowhere.
● Take action.
Courage comes from taking action. You need to act to overcome your fear. Your action may put you into discomfort, but you have to just do it. And your action can prevent you from being stuck.
●
To build up your confidence, you need to do the same thing over and over again. Soon you will discover that less courage is needed because you have already gained mastery. You are able to move decisively forward.
A. Share your fears with others.
B. Practice, practice and practice.
C. So you are already in a comfort zone.
D. You cannot think courage comes just in one day.
E. Each undesired result is just one more step towards your goal.
F. Finding out what is truly holding you back.
G. You needn't wait for an emergency to occur to develop courage.
【答案】G;F;E;D;B
【解析】文章主要是描述每天都会有害怕的产生,与此同时就可以培养出克服害怕的勇气,文章给读者提出了一些产生勇气的建议。
(1)G根据前文的描述,每天的生活中都充满了勇气,它并不仅仅是要面对危险时候做出的英雄行为,故此处衔接为不需要等到紧急情况,答案为G。
(2)F根据前一句的描述,可知你有可能知道自己到底害怕什么,因此紧接着描述的是查明是什么在阻碍着你,更和后句你开始知道是失败意思上配起来了。所以答案是F。
(3)E前一句说失败不是发生的最坏的事情,因此衔接的是每一个不期待的结果就是迈向你目标的一步,所以答案是E。
(4)D前一句说勇气来自于行动。此句结构中有comes,正好对应D项中的comes,意思上也能接起来,所以答案是D。
(5)B根据本段中you need to do the same thing over and over again可知是要你不断重复地去训练,练习。所以答案是B。
