Reflection
Courage
I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship.
— Louisa May Alcott
मैं तूफानों से नहीं डरती, क्योंकि मैं अपना जहाज चलाना सीख रही हूँ।
— लुइसा मे अलकॉट
Why this matters:
I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship. Confidence comes from competence. As we gain the skills to navigate life’s challenges, our fear of the ‘storms’ diminishes, replaced by a trust in our own ability to handle them.
यह क्यों मायने रखता है:
आत्मविश्वास सक्षमता (competence) से आता है। जैसे-जैसे हम जीवन की चुनौतियों का सामना करने का कौशल हासिल करते हैं, 'तूफानों' का हमारा डर कम हो जाता है, उसकी जगह उन्हें संभालने की हमारी अपनी क्षमता पर भरोसा आ जाता है।
