Chapter 4: Stamina

Hello!

Today, I'll foucs on Chapter four, whose stategy is "Take care of youreself: Maintain your stamina and let go of guilt." Althogh I did know that leadership is now required to each of us, and it is something we can learn by efforts to some degree, my reading experience of this book has been creating my own image of Shackletom as someone like superman. However, this chapter changed my impression of him in a good way. I understand that he was not a superman but an ordinary human, even though what he did and he himself was so great! He suffered from his bad health condition. He had a lot of things to worry about etc.

I'll pick out some of the points I was interested in this chapter.

• Observe others physical and mental health carefully, and tell them to care about their own health.

      I like personally like the part Worsely describe about Shackleton that his care was on the verge of fussiness.



• Share your internal feelings with people around you/yourself

          Human beings cannot live alone. We have lived helping each other since antient times. We need to "find outlets to our own feelings."

I have friends who ask me "Are you OK?" when they think I am not cheerful. Sometimes I actually faced difficulties, and sometimes I was just tired or couldn't sleep well the previous night. Even though I hadn't been in trouble at that time, I was really happy that they cared about me and asked me whether I am OK. I hope to be the person like them.
