“If change is forced upon you, you must resist the temptation to overreact or feel sorry for yourself.”
Robert Greene

In daily life, unexpected changes can occur at work or in relationships, but how we respond is within our control. For example, if a project deadline is suddenly moved up, instead of panicking or feeling sorry for oneself, one can stay calm, reevaluate priorities, and adjust the plan accordingly.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6 ESV

Courage is displayed when we face unexpected changes with resilience and composure, rather than giving in to self-pity or overreaction. Trusting in God's plan and wisdom, as advised in Proverbs 3:5-6, can help us stay calm and adapt to the challenges that come our way.
