Have you set sail? Is a storm raging? When the storm rages we have a chance to see something we did not see before, something new, boldness, courage and bravery.
The storm is not a time of retreat. The storm is the time of proving what we have is great.
The sailing boats in the Sydney to Hobart yacht race may be great vessels but are proven by the storm. Those that come through the storm have done something great.
The storm can cause us to fear and faint or fight. The storm is powerful but navigable by a good sailor. How do we become good? By going through the storm.
If you have done all you can and all that is left is to stand with ropes tying you to the wheel, stand, face the storm, yes it can be violent but you can survive if you do not panic and try to run.
When you face the lion and bear, do not run. Face off your fear!
When the storm passes you will have a story, what a story. You will encourage others who come behind, you will have strategy to pass on.
My favourite words I speak to myself are 'but what of I can?'
