Courage

September 13, 2011 by Diana Leave a Comment

Courage is the strength to stand up

When it’s easier to fall down and lose hold.

It is the conviction to explore new horizons

When it’s easier to believe what we’ve been told.

Courage is the desire to maintain our integrity

When it’s easier to look the other way.

It is feeling happy and alive, and moving forward

When it’s easier to feel sorry for ourselves and stay.

Courage is the will to shape our world

When it’s easier to let someone else do it for us.

It is the recognition that none of us are perfect

When it’s easier to criticize others and fuss.

Courage is the power to step forward and lead

When it’s easier to follow the crowd; their pleas resound.

It is the spirit that places you on top of the mountain

When it’s easier to never leave the ground.

The foundation of courage is solid,

The rock that doesn’t roll.

Courage is the freedom

Of our mind, body, and soul!

Testimonials

Working with Diana was great. She helped me identify my leadership strengths and find ways to use them to maximize my value to the organization as I transitioned into a new role with greater responsibility.

The main benefit of coaching was simply the reworking of my priorities to bring some semblance of balance back into my life as it applied to my family relationships and personal well-being.

Creating a Framework for Success as a Sustainable Leader in a Socially Connected Environment
Being a sustainable leader isn’t just a ‘touchy-feely’ term. It’s about creating innovation and collaboration within your environment. It’s about accomplishing goals that matter. And yes, it’s even about improving the bottom line of your business.

Because nothing is sustainable if it doesn’t “increase profitability and your competitive advantage.”
