It is already in the nature of a person that he or she is going to battle with his or her fear. Being a
coward is the one who rejects and fears every challenge in life failed to defend himself in a
vigorous standpoint. For instance, there is an athlete in a certain sport event who backs out in
joining for he is afraid of being failed. This is because he failed many times before and never
tried winning even being just a placer. This attribute best exemplifies cowardice in life because
the person failed to overcome his fear rather than fighting it. Moreover, the teaching of Aristotle
points out that there is indeed a deficiency on people with this kind people. Having the act of
grouchiness, stinginess, easily irritated or being short tempered. However, he also cited that in
order for a person to overcome his fear or being coward, he must be mentally rational and
requires reason to attain intellectual and moral virtue. As a result, this could be his weapon for
himself to resolve his deficiency.
