COURAGE
fear + cor + v1 + v6
Not fearlessness — fear, carried forward anyway. The required ingredient is the thing itself: no fear present, no courage possible. Dangerous and controlled.

HOW IT IS TRAINED
Trained in titrated doses: one hard conversation, one honest sentence, one descent at a time.
NOTE & CRAFT
Fear itself. The required ingredient is free and already installed.
The carrying. Fear, walked forward one rep at a time — every rep is one step of the walk, and no rep is transferable.
Two diagnostics split them anywhere: the arrival-feel — recognition (“I was this all along”) is a note unblocked; brick-by-brick is craft — and the energy test — playing the note energizes even when hard; performing an import drains even when easy. Sheet 03 →
THE COUNTERFEIT
RECKLESSNESS
Motion without weight. Courage requires fear the way combustion requires fuel; remove it and what's left is a gambler's twitch wearing a hero's coat.
THE TELL — No fear before, no shaking after. Courage trembles on both sides of the act.
