????以下是培養勇氣的五條策略：

????1.要靈活機敏。我的座右銘是：“結果要明確，方法要靈活。”實現目標的方法要靈活機敏。最優秀的領導者會將思想領袖克里斯?阿基里斯的“雙循環學習”付諸實踐，他們可以對局面進行評估，調整自己的策略，改變自己的行動，但目光始終瞄準最終的結果。事情很少按照我們計劃的方向發展。保持靈活機敏，可以讓你克服突然出現的許多錯誤和障礙。

????2.知道自己做某件事的意義。維克多?弗蘭克爾在《追尋人生的意義》（Man’s Search for Meaning）一書中說得很好：明確了意義，如何實現它就變得很容易。明確自己的夢想或挑戰背后的意義。你為什么做這件事？只要知道了做某件事的意義，你就能找到實現意義的方式。

????3.要感性一些。是的，你沒看錯。一旦變得感性，你便有了意向。你與自己的夢想或挑戰之間的情感聯系越緊密，就越有可能駕馭這種能量。（關鍵是要在被情緒左右之前駕馭它們！）

????4.組建最優秀的團隊。這便是同事的力量。在身邊召集一批相信你、能激勵你、希望你成功并且愿意分享挑戰的人。人們經常會否定你的夢想或告訴你為什么你不能接受挑戰，以此為自己的不作為尋找理由。組建一支能夠幫助你實現目標的團隊。

????5.經常放松自我。如果你筋疲力盡、不堪重負，總是過于緊張，你的精神會松懈，你的毅力會受到挑戰。關鍵是要照顧好自己，尋找安靜的時刻休息和反思。你需要拿出固定的時間，讓自己放下手頭事務，重新調整自我，徹底思考自己面臨的挑戰，找到新鮮的視角，整理自己的思想。

????面對困境，當我們采取措施的時候，當我們朝著讓我們看不到黎明曙光的方向前進時，當我們走出自己的舒適區，突破恐懼邊緣時，我們就能以自己從未想象過的方式成長和發展。雖然我很少見到有人對突破恐懼邊緣之后的生活充滿渴望，但直面挑戰可以帶來豐富的經歷、活力和新的學問。你可能從來不會面對迫使你突破恐懼邊緣的挑戰，但培養自己的勇氣，可以讓你從容面對任何挑戰或逆境。（財富中文網）

????Here are five strategies to develop your grit:

????1.Be agile.My motto is, “Clear on the outcome, flexible on their approach.” Be flexible and agile about how you get to your goal. The best leaders live what thought leader Chris Argyris called “double loop learning”—they are able to assess situations, adapt their strategy, and adjust actions to consistently target their outcomes. Things rarely work out the way we plan. Agility will see you through the many stumbles and obstacles that will crop up.

????2.Know your why.Victor Frankl said it best in Man’s Search for Meaning: When the why becomes clear, the how becomes easy. Get clarity on the why behind your dream or your challenge. Why are you doing this? When you know the why, you can find the way.

????3.Get emotional.That’s right. You read that correctly. Once you havee-motion, you have motion. The more emotionally associated you are to your dream or to the challenge, the more you can harness that energy for good. (And it’s key to have the emotions before they have you!)

????4.Build the best team.It’s the power of peers. Surround yourself with people who believe in you, energize you, want you to be successful, and who will share the challenge. All too often people will shoot down your dreams or tell you why you cannot rise to the challenge so they can justify not pursuing their own. Build a team that can help you reach your goal.

????5.Unplug often.If you are exhausted, overwhelmed, and over-wired all the time, your spirits will sag and your perseverance will suffer. Taking care of yourself and finding quiet time for rest and reflection is key. You need to schedule regular times to step back, recalibrate, and gain perspective to think through your challenge, find fresh perspective, and unclutter your mind.

????When we take action in the face of adversity, when we move toward something that scares the living daylights out of us, when we move out of our comfort zone and past our terror’s edge, we can grow and develop in ways we never imagined. While I’ve met very few people who covet living life beyond terror’s edge, there is a richness, a vibrancy, and a new learning that comes from facing a challenge. You may never be faced with something that pushes you past your terror’s edge, but developing grit can lead you through any challenge or adversity.
