In 1519,under the sponsorship of Cuba's Governor Velaquez, Cortes sailed from Cuba to the Mexican mainland with the goal of gaining riches for Spain and fame for himself.Though only thirty-four years old, the young Spanish captain had prepared his whole life for such a chance.
But the soldiers under his command were not as dedicated as he.After he landed,there was talk that the men might mutiny and return to Cuba with his ships.
What was his solution?
He burned the ships.
How dedicated are you to your team?
Are you really committed, or do you have an "out",just in case things dont work out?
If so,maybe you need to burn the ships.Remember,there is no such thing as hallhhearted champion.
