During the Great Depression, Franklin Roosevelt began turning the country around in his first inaugural address when he said, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” In fact, the full sentence he pronounced is even more pertinent: “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself – nameless, unreasoning, unjustified, terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.”

The wisest businesspeople and the most astute leaders know that those whose brains help them to achieve their biggest dreams don’t melt down when times are tough, they step up. Nelson Mandela clearly observed: “There is no passion to be found playing small in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.”

Richard Branson, one of a handful of today’s greatest entrepreneurs, recently wrote, “Every economic downturn is an amazing opportunity to win far more customers and trust and market share…if you have the eyes to see the opportunities and the ingenuity to go capture them.”

These questions are, in fact, enduring. They lie behind the greatness of the words of Heraclitus: How one meets change reveals all. And they appear in a hand-written note from Emerson in a Self-Reliance lecture he delivered in 1872: The exceptional life depends not on working harder, but on different, even opposite, actions from habit and the crowd. How exceptional is this life – and new story of success – you could shape in the midst of great change?
