While watching the play off game last night, I have to be honest: I was pulling for the "old man." We have to stick together you know! I am not a big football fan, but I am a BIG fan of great leaders! And Brett has proven over many years, he is just that-a great leader. So what happened last night? How could one with such experience, confidence & leadership make such a rookie mistake?
BECAUSE ALL GREAT LEADERS FAIL!
That is right, all great leaders fail. Sometimes even in the crunch, even when the title is on the line, the big deal is about to close, the greatest opportunity is before you and you fall on your face in failure. But this is the difference: all, and I mean all, GREAT LEADERS never stay on their face, they will always rise again with renewed vigor and experience and become an even better leader than they were before they failed. Because great leaders will always know how get up after failure and learn from it!
Old man! Go for it!
