Being brave is one of the more important keys in achieving something great. To achieve something normal people wouldn't be able to do, one has to have the courage to try things that nobody thought possible or worth the time. There are many examples where people build big business with the fearless attitude. Richard Branson built the airline business with one single second-hand plane. ING Direct brought in the No-Frills business model into the ultra competitive, highly regulated banking industry. Callaway Golf made millions of dollars building a golf club with bigger balls, attracting tons of people who are frustrated not being able to hit the ball in normal size. These are the things that were all thought to be impossible or silly before someone actually does it.
However, that is just the first part of being fearless. In my opinion, being able to accept failure and move on is just as important, if not more, than having the courage to tackle whatever challenge there is. Failure is unavoidable in business. If failure is not an option, neither is success.
