What makes someone a linchpin?
The ability to face any challenge to achieve a desired outcome.
No matter how difficult.
No matter how time-consuming.
No matter the discomfort associated.
Regardless of the obstacles.
Regardless of the complexity.
No matter what.
If this is the most optimal approach toward the desired outcome - let's get it.

Understand this and you will grow.
Face your fears. Grow. Achieve greatness.
