Courage to stay the course

There is a critical time period between the launching of a new venture and the results that come from that venture. During this hiatus, this waiting period, many people lose their nerve. They cannot stand the suspense of not knowing, of possible failure. They break and run in battle, they quake and quit in business. For a leader however, this is not the case. The true leader is the person who can stand firm, who refuses to consider the possibility of failure. The turning points of many key moments in human history have been the resolution, or lack thereof, of one person. Courageous patience is the acid test of leadership.

Ralph Waldo Emerson once said "A hero is no braver than the ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer." This is very true when you are talking about leadership and success in business. I am a firm believer that whoever fails the most in business wins. This is the person who keeps going despite all obstacles he faces. Any idiot can face one challenge and give up and go home, but truly successful people persevere and become great.

As soon as you have left your comfort zone you have embarked upon the journey to success. If you can keep at it when those around you are packing it in, you will find your goals achieved and your dreams realized.

See you at the top,
