I have bad eyes.
Like, really bad.
My lens popped out of my eye during one of my training sessions with the senior management of a very big group of companies.
Another time, I couldn’t see half the room as the lens shifted inside my eye while delivering a talk to 25 mid and senior managers of a national institution.
During a startup roundtable I was leading, my eye started itching and burning until I had to take myself out of the room for 3 minutes.
You know what I did when it happened?
I kept going.
The audience didn’t even know that this was going on.
And I believe that to build character, it’s one of the best things you can and should do for yourself – just keep at it.
Even when things are challenging.
Especially then.
