Keajaiban Keyakinan Diri

Kejayaan datang kepada mereka yang dapat mengendalikan kehidupan dengan yakin dan cemerlang.

Kisah Keyakinan Diri Joan of Arc amat menarik perhatian saya. Joan of Arc pada umur 17 tahun, seorang pengembala kambing biri-biri yang miskin di Perancis, amat percaya yang ia telah mendapat ilham dari Tuhan bahawa beliau harus mengetuai bala tentera Perancis untuk menentang tentera-tentera Inggeris yang amat sukar dikalahkan. Tentera-tentera Perancis telah kehabisan idea tentang bagaimanakah lagi cara menepis serangan-serangan serta mengalahkan tentera-tentera Inggeris. Kerana terlalu kekalutan, mereka telah merayu kepada sesiapa sahaja di kalangan rakyat Perancis untuk tampil ke hadapan memberi idea tentang bagaimanakah lagi cara menentang tentera-tentera Inggeris.

Joan of Arc seorang gadis yang masih amat muda itu telah tampil ke hadapan dengan keyakinan yang begitu tinggi, berapi-api - amat yakin sekali - seyakin-yakinnya! bahawa ia telah mendapat ilham dari Tuhan yang dia sahajalah yang akan dapat memimpin bala tentera Perancis bagi mengalahkan tentera-tentera Inggeris. Keyakinannya yang sungguh kental dan mengkagumkan itu telah memberi harapan baru kepada pucuk pimpinan tentera Perancis. Beliau telah diberi tugas berat; mengepalai tentera Perancis yang sedang menghadapi kebuntuan dan kemelut itu!

Keyakinan si gadis lidi yang tidak dapat dipertikaikan lagi itu telah menyemarakkan semangat seluruh tentera dan rakyat Perancis. Dengan keyakinan dan pimpinan Joan of Arc, mereka telah mendapat semangat dan tenaga baru untuk menyerang balas dan menggempur tentera-tentera Inggeris dengan strategi peperangan yang berbisa serta keyakinan dan semangat juang yang tidak terperi tingginya! Ini telah amat meNGEJUTKAN tentera-tentera Inggeris sehingga hilang arah, kekuatan dan semangat walaupun jumlah mereka lebih ramai daripada tentera-tentera Perancis - kelamkabut serta bertempiaran tentera-tentera Inggeris! Lantas, Perancis meraih kemenangan besar!

Inilah bukti KEAJAIBAN keyakinan diri!

Orleans, 1429

This battle of the hundred years war might also be known as 'How the English were beaten by a small girl'. The English, after winning at Agincourt in 1415, were in possession of large portions of Northern France including Paris. The English conquest of France seemed inevitable and so they began the siege of Orleans, the city being a 'gateway' to southern regions. The legend of Joan of Arc was born when a young 17 year old maid took upon herself the task of leading a French reprieve of Orleans. Accounts of Joan and the events that lead to her appointment as the leader of an army are littered with myth and religious overtones, she was seen as an angel or a saviour from heaven, men could not understand how she was able to command such respect and loyalty from the troops. She led a relief force, with food and supplies, to Orleans and, once there, led an attack against the English camps outside of the city. Guerrilla style tactics were used, small attacks in different locations, splitting up the English forces and making them more vulnerable. Soon the English siege was broken despite the fact that they had outnumbered the French defenders.

A medieval portrait of Joan of Arc.

An English relief force was defeated almost to a man despite also outnumbering the French led by Joan. Accounts of the battle once again speak of the French being supported by angels and having a divine leadership. These victories, combined with subsequent liberation of several French towns and cities by Joan, led to Joan of Arc being forever remembered as a heroine of France, her name and legend being equated with that of a saint or holy leader. She was captured and burned at the stake by the English in 1430.

Spurious counter argument...

Joan of Arc never lived to enjoy her victories, we killed her.

The fact that the leader of an army was eventually murdered cannot wipe out the victories that the army had. The English were defeated soundly at Orleans.
