Here’s a lesson from Alexander repparttar

Great:

Balance strengths or they will be your downfall.

I realized this from a History Channel documentary about Alexander repparttar 128984 Great. Many scholars rate him as history’s greatest military commander.

He was a brilliant strategist. Military historians still study his tactics more than 2,300 years after he executed them.

A charismatic leader, Alexander commanded from repparttar 128985 front line. Always in repparttar 128986 thick of battle and suffering every hardship, he never asked his troops to do anything he would not do himself.

(If you are a manager, apply this lesson. You will earn unwavering respect.)

His determination was legendary. He conquered Tyre by building a half-mile causeway across a bay even after repparttar 128987 defenders destroyed his first attempt.

By all accounts, he was utterly fearless and completely confident. We are still in awe even after 23 centuries.

But then there’s repparttar 128988 story of Alexander repparttar 128989 Human.

According to one scholar, his gifts being what they were, he would have burned himself out one way or repparttar 128990 other.
