"...courage is not the absence of despair; it is, rather, the capacity to move ahead in spite of despair."
~ Rollo May, 20th Century Existential Psychologist
Remember: It’s not about not being afraid.
Move ahead in spite of your fear/despair.

More on courage:
“What is courage? This courage will not be the opposite of despair. We shall often be faced with despair, as indeed every sensitive person has been during the last several decades in this country. Hence Kierkegaard and Nietzsche and Camus and Sartre have proclaimed that courage is not the absence of despair; it is, rather, the capacity to move ahead in spite of despair.”
"The relationship between commitment and doubt is by no means an antagonistic one. Commitment is healthiest when it is not without doubt but in spite of doubt."
