    Always remember that when someone is telling you a story, it’s probably because it’s about something that is important to them. You wouldn’t go trampling over their possessions, so don’t go trampling over their achievements either.
    Everyone will warm to you when you sit back and enjoy their stories. And remember: you don’t want to end up successful but without buddies!

    Don’t get me wrong, warm and dry is great as a reward ‘afterwards’, and we should all regularly enjoy some time chilling, doing ‘nothing’ – but if all you do is ‘nothing’, you will find it a very hollow existence.

    If we can, despite our feelings, take that courage pill and just get on and do what we hope we might be brave enough to do. . .then the world will often smile in return.
  • Inge Nørregård Meyerhas quoted6 years ago
    One final thought: the most courageous people are also sometimes the most unlikely people. I have seen it many times on high mountains. Ordinary people, in extraordinary situations, having to be incredibly brave.
    So take heart. If you don’t think you’re very brave – watch out! You’re the perfect candidate.
  • Inge Nørregård Meyerhas quoted6 years ago
    So remember: preparation is key. Prepare well and wisely, and success will become inevitable rather than a matter of chance.
