In our career journey, the measure of our leadership heart is how we respond and react to challenges and setbacks. I have lived through multiple, lengthy stressful moments as a CIO. My teams have grown as we focused on actions, not blame. Leadership requires toughness that may not be taught, but it can be learned. Easy to say, requires strength to do every day.
Same principles apply at home. My 85 year old Dad reminded me that simply standing in cool water on a hot day was an accomplishment to relish if you were unable to walk 4 weeks ago.
#enjoy the outcome.
