"Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees all others."
- Winston Churchill
I have been wanting to write a Morning Motivator around this topic for awhile now. This is the idea of doing what is BEST for you, your people and your community, in spite of the results.
We live in a world of YES people. You know them... The ones that are so PROUD that they are always on the winning team, the one's that have NEVER had a failure or ALWAYS side with the management team. They are the people that you see but never NOTICE. They speak and are not HEARD. The EXIST but barely LIVE.
In our society, most people fall into the above category. As a leader, you must TRUST yourself and your people to be VIRTUOUS in the face of all the "lemmings." The INSPIRATION people seek comes from the BOLD, STRONG leaders that make a difference. It is your WILLINGNESS to sacrifice personal COMFORT to fight for the best interests of others that creates TRUST and CONFIDENCE about you in the eyes of others.
2 DEGREE SUCCESS STEP:
Are you a YES person? Do you stand up for what is RIGHT even if it means being the outcast?
It is understandable if you have up to this point. Maybe you didn't know what YOU stood for or didn't know how to take ACTION.
The point is that TODAY is the day you can become a great leader. Dig your feet into the ground and stand BOLDLY for what you believe in. You will not be judged harshly for what you BELIEVE as long as you show STRENGTH and COMMITMENT to your position.
Be bold, be strong... Be a GREAT leader!
Cheers,
Zach
