Take a step back and endure the calm for a while.
As a human being, you should undoubtedly stick to your inner principles and the nobility deep in your soul. You should not easily compromise or even betray your conscience just because you succumb to pressure or covet material benefits. However, when one's fame, wealth or material interests are harmed or there is a conflict between one's personal interests and others, if one can make a generous concession, it is not only not cowardice, but also a manifestation of great tolerance.
