I started to read this book as my teacher and i decided to compare Shackleton and my experience. This chapter first showa us the decision and how it was related to Shackleton's experience and finally it explain the knowhow about that theme. i agree with the first theme, "do not lose the Ultimate goal." I think leader should be the first people to go toward the goal. Everyone look at the leader and realize what should they do and leader should show them what is needed to success the goal by his behavior. So, if the leader lose the vision toward the goal, the whole group will be destroyed from the inside because they can not know where to go, what to do for something.
This chapter was very useful me to think about my life management. For me, i should be the leader of myself and if we have many choices to do, we sometimes lose our decision. however, if we have an ultimate goal in ourself it will make us not to lose our decision.

Thanks for making this additional post in Week 2. Yes, it is very important for leaders to be in control of themselves and to be a good model for others. I wish you success with your ultimate goal for yourself.
