I can't agree more with the subject. Each of us has immense potential and everyone wants to achieve a lot. However, the only thing that stops individuals is the risk associated with the short term decisions.
Many times for long term benefits, short term losses have to suffered. But one gets courage to take those risks and handle those losses in short term only and only if one is clear of his/her long term goals. If you can clearly see the direction in which you are moving, you will become a better leader overnight.
You will synergize efforts towards a particular direction. You will overcome obstacles in your way. You will either build upon your small successes or learn from your failures but towards your ultimate goals. The same sense of direction needs to be complemented by the most important attribute of leadership- Perseverance.
History testifies that there are many great personalities such as Henry Ford, Steve Jobs, and Walt Disney failed in early ventures. However, they were persistent and passionate towards their ultimate goal. It’s the perseverance that separates the best from the mediocre. Understandably you will fail in your ventures and attempts. But that's not failure. That in fact is a wonderful learning opportunity. The real failure is when you give up and decide not to give it a try at all.
So, it settled. Quitting a not an option.
To conclude, Leadership requires clear long term vision, risks in short term, and perseverance to sustain on self development road.
