Patience is a virtue and challenging to apply 100% of the time.
But that’s what great leadership (and parenting) is all about, being consistent when the pressures tempt us to loose our patience.
Leadership is also about seeing ahead and preparing a future that is better than now, much better.
One small hairline crack from a single dropped iPhone led to a set of spider-web cracks after a second drop one week later. Heading back to Glacier National Park for a week i don’t want a third drop to render the iPhone useless.
Plan ahead.
Simple.
Not easy.
Temptation to wait almost always runs high.
