“Smile every chance you get. Not because life has been easy, perfect, or exactly as you had anticipated, but because you choose to be happy and grateful for all the good things you do have and all the problems you know you don’t have.”

— Author Unknown

If you build an army of 100 lions and their leader is a dog, in any fight, the lions will die like a dog. But if you build an army of 100 dogs and their leader is a lion, all dogs will fight like a lion.

Leadership is one of the most important factor in any fight.

Napoleon Bonaparte

Hope is a feeling of expectation, belief and desire.

“I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.”

Maintain Motivation in a Troubled Organization

No company’s future is completely secure. When your business is facing declining sales, a potential buy-out, or even certain closure, how do you manage people who are likely panicking about their future? Even if it’s clear that your organization is in trouble, you can still help team members stay focused and deliver results.
Be as honest as you possibly can. Whatever you know, share it with your employees. Don’t try to protect people from the truth or ignore what’s happening. In tough situations, people are on high alert for lies and inauthentic messages.
Give your team a larger purpose. People want to believe their work matters in any situation. When the company’s success is no longer the goal, you might identify something that employees value personally, like leaving a legacy or proving critics wrong.

Adapted by HBR from “Managing People on a Sinking Ship” by Amy Gallo.

Life is too short to waste a single second with anyone, who doesn’t appreciate or value you.

Achievement is to accomplish something by superior ability or special effort.

“Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882);
Philosopher, Poet, Author, Essayist

“All the adversity I’ve had in my life, all my troubles and obstacles, have strengthened me… You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you.”

— Walt Disney
