This draft seems to me to concentrate too much on superficials (the dictionary definition of courage, for example), and too little on a central idea of your own about courage, whichever one you mean to put forward. Sentences such as "The most important thing is that we not lose sight of how important it is to have courage not only as lawyers, but as individuals in general," are generalized rhetoric, not the close pursuit of an idea. Sentences like "Without [courage], we risk falling numb to the ills of society and traveling down a path in life that will leave behind no meaningful social impact," seem more confusing still: is "courage" a general synonym here for all forms of social consciousness?

Probably the best way forward is to start from a single-sentence formulation of your idea about courage. Free it from rhetoric, don't worry about what it sounds like, just ask yourself what the idea is. Write it simply, at the beginning of an introductory paragraph, and then develop it. Your development makes a new conclusion apparent. The result will surprise you.
