Monday Greetings !
Winston Churchill once said, "Courage is rightly considered the foremost of the virtues because upon it, all others depend." So true.
Courage is the chief distinguishing characteristic of the true leader. It is almost always visible in the leader's words and actions. It is absolutely indispensable to success, happiness and the ability to motivate other people to be the best they can be.
To be courageous, you have to refuse to Compromise. There are always temptations to compromise your values and your vision, to "get along by going along. Remember, courage combined with integrity is the foundation of character. So always stick to Your Principles.
Avoid Your Comfort Zone. Most people are seduced by the lure of the comfort zone. This can be likened to going out of a warm house on a cold, windy morning. The average person, when he feels the storm swirling outside his comfort zone, rushes back inside where it's nice and warm. But not the true leader.
The true leader has the courage to step away from the familiar and comfortable and to face the unknown with no guarantees of success. It is this ability to "boldly go where no man has gone before" that distinguishes you as a leader from the average person. It is this example that inspires and motivates other people to rise above their previous levels of accomplishment as well.
In a nutshell, set big goals for yourself and force yourself out of the comfort zone by acting boldly - even when there is no guarantee of success.
As usual, make it a great week ahead.
Warm Regard, Sara Pandian
