Burn The Ships

Burn The Ships!

When Spanish Conquistador Hernando Cortez landed in Mexico, one of his first orders to his men was to burn the ships. Cortez was committed to his mission and did not want to allow himself or his men the option of going back to Spain.

Success is often about commitment; not leaving an escape route; jumping in with both feet and not allowing failure to be an option.

Once you are truly committed, in your head and in your heart, then you will take appropriate action to reach your goals. You will experience setbacks along the way. You will make mistakes. Believe that you will achieve your goals and never give up. Thomas Edison failed 10,000 times before inventing the lightbulb. Abraham Lincoln was defeated dozens of times before becoming President.

This blog is about mindset, best practices and creative ideas. Get your head screwed on straight, take appropriate action, find the motivated and keep going, and going, and going!
