Key Values
You may see acts of courage everywhere you look. Standing up for a friend,
lending a hand to a stranger, or persevering through a difficult task are all
examples of showing courage. One of the most crucial qualities a young
person can inculcate is courage. You become a better person, student, and
citizen this way.
We all possess different strengths. They may not be the same as those of
others around us. But whatever you have is your own personal strength
and is thus, great. Believe in yourself. Have confidence in what you do.
That is how you learn to be brave!
