When you use these words, you sound weak:
"Should"
"Hope"
"Maybe"
"Try"
"Might"
"Kind of"
"Sort of"
They signal uncertainty.
Lack of conviction.
Fear of commitment.
Here's the upgrade:
"Should" → "Will"
"Hope" → "Plan"
"Maybe" → "Yes/No"
"Try" → "Do"
"Might" → "Will"
"Kind of" → Remove it
"Sort of" → Remove it
Strong leaders don't hope for results.
They create them.
They don't try to hit goals.
They hit them.
They don't kind of have a plan.
They execute one.
Your words shape perception.
Choose them carefully.
Build conviction.
Drop the weak ones.
Lead with strength.
And listen...
Risk exists.
Things fail.
Plans derail.
But great leaders don't hide behind maybes.
They face uncertainty head-on.
With conviction.
This isn't about ignoring risk.
It's about confronting it with confidence.
