Be bold. Be Brave. Be Yourself.

January 29, 2016 Posted by admin Uncategorized
Life requires courage. I don’t mean that existing requires courage – anyone can exist. But, to really live life as God intended us to live, we have to be brave enough to do so. To fully live, one must be willing to take risks, and sometimes step out in faith. So go ahead – Be bold. Be Brave. Be Yourself.
“Heroes are never perfect, but they’re brave, they’re authentic, they’re courageous, determined, discreet, and they’ve got grit.”Wade Davis
“Truth and courage aren’t always comfortable, but they’re never weakness.” Brene Brown
“I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.”
Nelson Mandela
“Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened.” Billy Graham
“Take chances, make mistakes. That’s how you grow. Pain nourishes your courage. You have to fail in order to practice being brave.” Mary Tyler Moore
“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.” Steve Jobs
“He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.” Muhammad Ali
“You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’” Eleanor Roosevelt
“Courage is being scared to death and saddling up anyway.” John Wayne
“Success is never final, failure is never fatal. It’s courage that counts.” John Wooden
“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.” Anais Nin
“Everyday living requires courage if life is to be effective and bring happiness.” Maxwell Maltz

Like many, Ria faced adversity in life. Ria was sexually abused by her father from age 12 - 19, forced to play the role of his wife, and even shared with other men. Desperate to escape, she left home at 19 without a job, a car, or even a high school diploma. Ria learned to be resilient, not only surviving, but thriving. She worked her way through college, earning her MBA with a cumulative 4.0 GPA, and had a successful career in the corporate world of administrative healthcare. Today, Ria is a motivational leadership speaker, TEDx Speaker, and author of 10 books, including Leadership Gems for Women. Ria shares powerful leadership principles and tools of transformation from her journey to equip and empower women, helping them realize, optimize, and maximize their leadership potential.
