I was incredibly impressed with the team’s resolve yesterday. As we discussed the challenges of the short term versus a commitment to long term success, they were firm in their stance to remain on course. The strategies are fixed and the fortitude is well established.  Not one person on the management team wavered an inch.

What a wonderful team and a wonderful moment.  To know that the person next to you shares the same commitment to the strategy.  So that if at any moment they doubt, you may lift them up and likewise if you begin to doubt, they may lift you up.

This puts us in execution mode. The question is no longer what to do, but how best to get it done! We will not and cannot be solely in execution mode forever. Yet what a luxurious moment to know exactly what to do and simply get to think only about accomplishing the goal at hand.
