If
there's one thing I encourage young leaders in these days it's to be
undauntedly courageous and confident.
Frankly, these are essential ingredients that must be continually
stirred in leaders of all ages. But what
about being cautious...? Shouldn't we be
taught the value of careful steps and methodical decision-making? Ernest Hemingway said it best: "Never
confuse movement with action." I
have personally found the interesting teacher of life experience: there will be
enough of such ebbs and flows that lessons of balance will prevail. Are there times to be cautious? Absolutely. And, yet, the greater value is to
err on the side of confidence. If we
don't aggressively challenge others to be courageous and confident, caution
will be the default...and, grand opportunities for the cause of forwardness
will be missed.
What
courageous steps do you need to take today?
