Rabbi Zelig Pliskin
Daily Lift, #428 Courage builds self-respect. When you sacrifice for principles and ideas, you increase your self-respect. When you face a painful situation and react with dignity, you increase your self-respect. When you say, ‘No,’ to temptation even though others will try to persuade you to say, ‘Yes,’ you increase your self-respect. When you don’t allow opposition to stop you from doing what you know must be done, you increase your self-respect. In short, every act of courage makes you feel better about yourself.
