There’s good reason the most repeated phrase in the Bible is “Be not afraid.” Fear is an exceedingly common emotion, even among confident people and leaders. As a leader, there is a lot to be fearful of. Leaders commonly confront the unknown and navigate through situations they have never seen before. Situational challenges connected to potentially grave or disastrous outcomes naturally create fear.
Bravery, fear and excitement are close relatives. As Jim said above, it’s finding that sweet spot in the venn diagram that, all of the above notwithstanding, allows you to move forward anyway, taking others along with you
Leadership lives in that sweet spot between fear and recklessness. That is, indeed, bravery.
Good morning,
