The ability to remain focused, upbeat and resolute amidst the turbulence of disappointment and challenge is a necessary skill which one who strives to succeed must obtain. It is important to not let disappointment in one’s life turn into an indictment of one’s efforts and cherished goals. “An individual’s ability to carry on in the face of calamitous adversity showcases critical leadership traits, including perseverance, self containment amidst difficult circumstances, courage, perspective, and an ability to focus on the needs of others rather than oneself. Individuals who have mastered such challenges in their own lives are more apt to be viewed as leaders able to serve others” ( Strock,2001,pg.93).
