Mission
To contribute towards a world of hope where all humans regard themselves with value as capable of defying any odds to champion their own future.
Motivation
Some people have gained popularity as celebrities for their monumental accomplishments in various industries such as music, writing, technology, business, and performing arts, to mention a few. When you look at such successful people, they are like anyone else with stories about their journeys. They are not extraordinary although the world depicts them as such. Their life experiences teach us that there are tools that can enable anyone to become successful. Wait, by success, we do not mean only those that have achieved their big dreams and gained popularity. Success includes those who try out things to achieve their goals. Indeed, there are so many people that kept trying but did not achieve their goals till death. We consider such people as successful because they tried. They did not stay idle or give up. Failure is not defeat but part of the journey. Defeat is to give up after failing or not to have tried at all. We aspire for a world where everyone can muster courage and determination in their own capabilities and try out things to achieve their goals.
Background
We live in a world of influences that shape us in many ways including how we view ourselves. Unfortunately, some of the influences are negative and often turn their victims into passive, uncourageous, unconfident, and myopic. Such individuals look down on themselves, they think they are worthless, and cannot achieve anything. If individuals can be influenced negatively, there is hope that they can also be influenced positively. This site is devoted to content designed to influence individuals positively to give them hope and prepare them for success in their passionate endeavours.
To achieve our mission, we invite everyone to participate by sharing something. courage.us.com provides virtual space to enable members of the public to upload video clips. We do not write or curate any of the content on this platform. This is done by volunteers, such as you who create and maintain courage.us.com. Everyone has a story that can change somebody’s life. You can make a 15-20 minute video of your experience and upload here to impact millions of lives in America and beyond. If you like to motivate people, you are in the right place.
