Courage by Design

Description

Courage is a choice — your choice. If you wish, you can design and follow your own personal roadmap for a courageous life. In her powerful new book, visionary business leader Dee M. Robinson shows you how to transform your life by building up the courage to hear your own authentic internal voice. That voice is what points you toward your best self — and when you have the courage to hear it, that voice can teach you to overcome fear, make brave, bold choices, and find joy in fulfilling your true purpose in life.
 
Strengthening your courage muscle, Robinson maintains, is a matter of learning, practicing, and living the Courage Commandments she has shared with students and audiences around the country:

 Assume Full Control of Your Thoughts

Be the CEO of You

Break the Addiction to Fear

Harness the Power of Faith

Find Your Calling

Play to Your Strong Suit

Connect with Allies Who Are Focused on Solutions

Choose Who You Do (and Don’t) Share Your Dreams With

Find Success In Failure

Your Secret Weapon: Give, Give and Give Again with Integrity

…and a special eleventh commandment:
+1: Win the Race: Make Good Trouble by Putting Your Heart and Soul into Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
 
The book also features Ms. Robinson’s personal interviews with some of the most successful–and brave–leaders on the scene today.  Each shares personal insights on using the Courage Commandments to design, and live, a life of bold, tenacious contribution.
