Have you ever heard when you begin, you’re half way done? It’s a silly cliche with an enormous amount of truth. Beginning something new is difficult because you’re accepting the prospect of rejection. Here are 5 ways you can find inner courage.

1. Acknowledge that you’ll probably fail and even more, that failure is natural and an acceptable outcome.
2. Believe in yourself and the value you are going to offer everyone in the world through this start-up.
3. Paint your colors when starting up, in fact, I thoroughly encourage it.
4. Stick with an optimistic view and an everything is possible mindset.
5. Just start! Recognize that you’ll change, revise, and alter whatever it is that you’ll be doing.
