Managerial Courage

Welcome again to my new blog. This time topic is about "Courage"

"To overcome evil with good is good, to resist evil by evil is evil. (Al-Hadith) "

What is Courage?

It is state of mind that motivates/activates us for insurmountable tasks/challenges.

Aspects of Courage

Courage has two aspects, moral & physical.

Moral courage is required when challenge or task is immaterial, e.g., to speak truth while lying can bring benefits or truth may bring problems.

On the other hand, physical courage is needed to control physical desires or to do some physical activity that may cause physical pains or may bring some physical threat, e.g., regular exercise, balance eating habit, struggle against some evil element of society, and joining of armed/police force for state enemies / criminals.


Cosmic Design & Courage

Life is effort-return phenomenon.

  • The Omnipotent Creator is designer of Effort-Return phenomena.
  • The aim of cosmic design is to trial human conduct, morally as well as physically.
  • Allah created the universe with full of bounties, both tangibles as well as intangibles. However, these treasures of Mercy or natural gifts are concealed behind some physical and moral hurdles. A person can get these natural gifts through some concerted and courageous efforts.
  • The physical courage is needed to unearth the tangible benefits and moral courage is required for intangible benefits. 
  • It is noteworthy that physical and moral courage are co-existent and interlinked.

This sums up First part of this blog. I will discuss about Aspects of Courage in next blog. Stay tuned.
