"Men beget goodwill in other men by giving it. They develop courage in their following mainly as a reflection of the courage which they show in their own action. These two qualities of mind and heart are of the essence of sound officership. One is of little avail without the other, and either helps to sustain the other." -- The Armed Forces Officer, U.S. Department of Defense (1950)
If you want to encourage others, you must enflesh courage in yourself. The simple act of being courageous does more to infuse courage into your followers than a well prepared oratory on the topics accompanied by practical cowardice.
1 Thessalonians 5:11
Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing
