If there were only success in your life, you would not learn anything. Leadership is experience and you are still young. You still have much to learn about our people and war; it should not come easy to you. If it did, you would be robbed of life's most valuable teacher. Rachel Higginson
About This Quote

The military and war can be a difficult and bloody business, but it does offer valuable experiences and lessons. Every leader should be humble enough to recognize that there is much more to learn, and that it can come only from experience. However, this does not mean we should waste our valuable time in learning the hard way. The truth is, if we know what we are doing, we will usually get the job done without having to go through all of the hardships that come with war and military experience.
