Are you demoralised by challenges insurmountable?
Are you plagued by difficult people?
It was said once to me that "Leaders are Readers."
During one of the darkest moments of my life, I took out a couple of great non-fiction, self-help books. Together with a great buddy of mine, we spent the wee hours of the morning at the Marina Barrage in Singapore. Reading. Yes, reading, instead of drinking away my problems with alcohol or some other common "de-stressing" techniques.
The first three nights were uneventful. I still felt down, defeated and tired. However, I kept mugging away at the books. My weary eyes dutifully took in word after word, chapter after chapter and page after page.
Words cannot explain what happened from the fourth night... suddenly, I just felt a kind of STRENGTH I have never felt before. A wave of hope and a ray of light in the dark recesses of my soul. It was as if I was born again. I simply no longer feel destitute or lonely in my circumstances.
As a result, I stood up after a few early mornings of reading in solitude to face the world anew. To say to the walls surrounding me, "You shall be TORN DOWN!"
Indeed, that was what I did and not only did I survive beyond my headaches, I arose VICTORIOUS. I came off that period of time WISER. I created a new movement within the Business that led to an explosion of new numbers!
