Give me the wind
June 30th, 2009
I can’t find who wrote this but I think it fits perfectly well in the business world:
————————————-
I am at my best with the wind in my face,
When overcoming the challenge, with pace.
The pace that requires more effort, more strength.
But once gained momentum endures with great length.
It’s easy to sit back, placid and calm
Comfort is only a relative balm.
It seems an advantage, better than strife,
but is dulled by stagnation, stifling life.
Progress needs movement, energy, drive,
No chance for improvement if you do not strive.
Nothing’s for nothing: cause and effect.
That which you work for, you’ve more chance to get.
So give me the wind, let it blow in my face,
the more I confront, the more strength I’ll embrace.
Steps are not mounted, nor challenges overcome.
Without certain courage or effort be done.
