Courage is…

….the discovery that you may not win, and trying when you know you can lose

– Thomas Krause

Some Say That Fear Has Two Meanings…

Forget Everything And Run….

or

Face Everything And Rise….

But I prefer Will Smith’s view in the film After Earth….

“Fear is not real. The only place that fear can exist is in our thoughts of the future. It is a product of our imagination, causing us to fear things that do not at present and may not ever exist. That is near insanity. Do not misunderstand me danger is very real but fear is a choice.”

You can do…

…what I cannot do. I can do what you cannot do. Together we can do great things

– Mother Teresa

Leaders are….

… visionaries with a poorly developed sense of fear and no concept of the odds stacked against them

– Robert Jarvik

A great…

… leader’s courage to fulfill his vision comes from passion, not position

– John Maxwell

The most important….

… thing about a team of people is that they get on well together, that the people who are leading them genuinely care about people, that they look for the best in their people, that they praise, very rarely criticise and you actually run your company like a real family

– Richard Branson

It is…

… not the mountain we conquer but ourselves

– Edmund Hillary

Our lives…

… begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter

– Martin Luther King

It always…

… seems impossible until it’s done

– Nelson Mandela

There is always…

… much to be said for not attempting more than you can do and for making a certainty of what you try. But this principle, like many others in life has it exceptions.

– Winston Churchill
